All items offered at Australian Dollar prices subject to prior FOREWORD sale. Prices include GST. Postage & insurance is extra. Amazon’s founder Jeff Bezos declared a decade ago that “the book is so Payment is due on receipt of books. highly evolved and so suited to its task that it’s very hard to displace”. No reply means item sold prior to receipt of your order. It turns out that he was right, despite his pushing Amazon’s Kindle e- reader as a viable alternative. Unless to firm order, books will only be held for three days. Last year Waterstones in the UK returned to profit after six years of losses, sales of printed books in the USA rose by 3% while sales of e- books have fallen. CONTENTS Amazon now favours print books and is now about to open a bricks and BOOKS OF THE MONTH 1 - 31 mortar bookshop in Manhattan. Price has a lot to do with the dynamics of this. Amazon signed deals & THE PACIFIC 32 - 163 with publishers limiting e-book discounting and prices of e-books rose MISCELLANEOUS 164 - 376 after this, however Amazon is still discounting hard copy books. In some BOOKPLATES 377 - 388 cases of late the e-book version of a title has been more expensive that the hard copy, which to me makes no sense at all. Front cover items: Books, either in printed or digital form, have been a more stable platform that other types of media. Music, for example, faced many disruptions, 1, 22, 109, 26 (2v), 19/ from piracy to subscription services, but not so the book. We can listen 23, 13 (6v), 134, 28, 4 to many music tracks over a day but we tend to read books one at a time, and each one takes days. Back cover items: Even at the Antique Bookshop we have noticed that there has been lately 31, 379, 17, 91, 101/ 78, 257, 41, 103, 269, 56 / a greater enthusiasm for real books. 49, 35, 248, 304, 88, 71/ 163, 210, 199, 250, 145, 208 So the book is back, not that I or anyone reading this would have thought that it March 2017 ever went away!
