Description: First full-scale guide to the origins and development of the early printed book, and the issues associated with it.
Brief description: JULIA BOFFEY is Professor of Medieval Studies in the Department of English at Queen Mary University of London.
Review Quotes: Each chapter is richly referenced and densely informative and I can quite see that this volume will become (if it is not already) the go-to compendium for students of early printed books, of book history more generally, and of reading and reception studies and histories in medieval and early modern Britain and beyond.-- "ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW"
