The World Book Encyclopedia
An encyclopedia designed especially to meet the needs of elementary, junior high, and senior high school students.
The Changing World of Publishing
This issue represents a broad synopsis of the past, present, and future of electronic publishing. The contributors explore the opportunities and challenges related to this new distribution channel, and the effect of this change on publishers, authors/editors, distributors, and consumers. Standing with the key to the "new world," publishers will be faced with new opportunities and nagging issues related to new competition, content control, and protection of revenue streams requiring strategies that stress rationalization of distribution systems, cross-promotion, strategic pricing, and leveraging to new revenue sources. In addition, this issue also highlights the objections of consumers to these types of change, the benefits of the new technology for consumers, and the adaptation of the publishing industry as a whole.
The Pricing Puzzle
The price of virtually any product or service can reveal intriguing stories. The author looks back at his own decade-long pricing journey and shares some of the most exciting and insightful pricing stories, allowing readers to see the world from a different angle. From pricing a chilled Coke in Tehran, to iPhone, to explaining the fall of MUJI, this book reveals the rationales behind and outcomes of various pricing strategies. The author also presents a number of stories from China, a "price wonderland" in which he, both as a consumer and a pricing consultant, has observed unconventional pricing practices rarely found elsewhere, such as the frequent use of negative prices among tech unicorns, i.e., sellers paying consumers to use their products. Structured as a collection of short stories, the book offers a delightful and eye-opening reading experience for business owners, managers, and anyone interested in understanding what prices are, and how pricing works and interacts with us as customers.
