There are different branches including trade, education, academic, scholarly and scientific publishing etc. There are also a number of divisions in publishing that are often not as visible as the roles of publisher or editor.

The publishing landscape is always changing. If it isn’t the eBook, it’s Amazon and the self-publishing boom. Once upon a time, the introduction of paperbacks made people sit up and take notice by putting books in people’s hands at a fraction of the previous cost.
