書籍是許多不同領域和藝術相遇之處，各種形式、概念、材料和工藝結合在一起，創造出根植於其功能性的東西，而此一過程經常跨越到更混亂的藝術領域。
本書展示來自世界各地的造紙商、印刷商、裝訂商、藝術家、設計師和出版商組成的蓬勃發展的生態系統，他們利用傳統工藝、藝術和實驗來製作現今最重要的書籍。本書透過26個章節，介紹從傳統手工藝人到為新讀者重新構想這本書的現代製造商、再加上許多專家的貢獻，讓讀者深入了解書籍製作過程的歷史和當代背景。
Books are a meeting place. A sum of their many parts and artistic approaches. Form, concept, material and craft are bound together to create something rooted in its functionality, a process that often crosses over into the messier realm of art.
Books. Art, Craft & Community presents a thriving ecosystem of papermakers, printers, bookbinders, artists, designers and publishers from round the world. They draw on traditional skills, art and experimentation to make books that matter today. In twenty-six profiles – spanning traditional craftspeople to modern makers reimagining the book for new audiences – and contributions from experts, we are given an insight into the history and contemporary context of the processes behind the books.
Selected by Simon Goode and Ira Yonemura of the London Centre for Book Arts, these artists and makers share a spirit of curiosity and resilience. They not only adapt to new ways in which readers engage with books, but are forging new possibilities for their craft along the way.
