Hello,
I’m a research scholar, and my research topic is “a study of book publishing in english in India after Independence”.
This blog is full of information for me. So can we know, where we find some more details on ‘Numbers’, ‘History’ and about the references.

Hey, I was wondering where can I find some more details on the “Numbers” and “Supply Chain” topics that you have mentioned in the blog.

As a customer, one amazing thing was the large amount of Penguin classics at affordable prices as well as the large amount of used bookstores, esp. in places like Bangalore.

One of the things that put me off some of their major chains was the lack of care with stock and confusing store setups. It was obvious that even in the smaller branches there was no reshelving or care being taken to put titles in their proper order and that quite a few spines were bent or books damaged.

Hey! And then there’s us! And unlike the others, we have blog and are on Twitter too… :)

Great article, BTW. The industry here is so obscure that it’s hard to get a fix on numbers…
