NO-ISBN : on self-publishing

More about the book

"This book examines a collection of publications that withdraw from the international trading system. Three shared traits connect the total of 1,800 publications: they circulate without an ISBN, are printed on paper, and are recent. Individually, their forms range from cheaply copied flyers to classical hardcovers and handmade small editions. For the most part, our authors are young and active in the field of art. In selecting the illustrations, our attempt was to reflect the expressive nature of contemporary publishing."--Page 79
