  Yes, that's how it is 👍
  And then there are the ones that appeal to a lot of people
  Which are also intended for the maistream

  Yes, and the publisher has to make a living in order to get books printed and out to the public as well as the benefit of getting the information out to as wide an audience as possible.
  I was being too snarky.

  @GreenFire @MaJ1 @HistoPol @mina @energiepirat @2ndStar @evelynefoerster @SilviaMarton @VeroniqueB99 @si_irini @forthy42 @SarahEx OK, so I'm married to a publisher, so I have picked up some of how they operate.
  A particular, specific, book is aimed at a particular, specific, market. The same author may well write other stuff in other ways for other markets.
  And then the punter has a choice of what to buy and read.

  So, book publishers are to blame for how dumb our society seems to have become?
  That's so sad.
