摘要

摘要:根据我个人的经验，我把自己的论文修改成一本书，并帮助几十位作者也这样做，我把语言放在了这个过程中一个关键但具有挑战性的阶段:写书。在描述了写书所需要的工作，阐明了它与写书提案的根本区别，并解释了为什么作者可能会过早地放弃这项工作，而倾向于更熟悉的工作模式之后，我提供了可操作的提示和练习，作者可以使用这些提示和练习来使写书更加具体。

Against Using the Book Proposal to Rethink Your Book: Why and How to Work on Your Book Instead

Abstract:Drawing from personal experience revising my dissertation into a book and helping dozens of authors do the same, I put language to a critical yet challenging phase in this process: working on one's book. After describing what working on one's book entails, elucidating how it fundamentally differs in posture from writing a book proposal, and explaining why authors might abandon this work prematurely in favour of more familiar modes of working, I offer actionable prompts and exercises that authors can use to make working on their book more concrete.

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.
