Abstract
Based on the author’s many years of experience in college textbook publishing, this article discusses three topics relevant to the textbook-publishing business: (a) the motivations of the author and publisher regarding revenue maximization versus profit maximization, (b) the reimportation of textbooks as an impediment to the international price-discrimination practices of publishers, and (c) the effects of mergers among publishers. Each of these topics is an application of undergraduate microeconomic theories and principles.
