Abstract

Abstract:Unimpressive books fail to make effective, distinctive, or otherwise substantive contributions. Yet their reviews can be useful to potential readers (as caveats), to publishers (as quality-control checks), to authors working on similar book projects (as models of what to avoid), and even to the reviewers themselves (as exercises for developing connoisseurship within a specific field). By articulating the implications and transferability of evaluative criteria, this essay explores the value and utility of such reviews.

为什么我要评论平庸的书

摘要:不起眼的书无法做出有效的、独特的或实质性的贡献。然而，他们的评论对潜在读者(作为警告)、对出版商(作为质量控制检查)、对从事类似图书项目的作者(作为避免哪些内容的模型)、甚至对评论者自己(作为在特定领域培养鉴赏力的练习)都很有用。通过阐明评价标准的含义和可转移性，本文探讨了这种评价的价值和效用。

期刊介绍： For more than 40 years, the Journal of Scholarly Publishing has been the authoritative voice of academic publishing. The journal combines philosophical analysis with practical advice and aspires to explain, argue, discuss, and question the large collection of new topics that continually arise in the publishing field. JSP has also examined the future of scholarly publishing, scholarship on the web, digitization, copyright, editorial policies, computer applications, marketing, and pricing models. It is the indispensable resource for academics and publishers that addresses the new challenges resulting from changes in technology and funding and from innovations in production and publishing.
