★不管是閱讀、拿在手上、或只是擺放在書架上，這都是一本非常奢華的書★
書籍的歷史相當悠久，在人類文明發展中扮演非常重要的角色。讓我們檢閱史上最著名、最稀有、最具開創性的75本(以上)書籍，並驚嘆於它們背後的故事。
《改變歷史的經典書籍》事實上是一本獨特的百科全書，涵蓋從西元前3,000年至今的書面文字歷史，按時間順序區分為5個時期，來呈現人類知識的演進、以及書籍製作方式的變化。
這些最具影響力的經典書籍的類型包含字典、日記、劇本、詩集、契約、和傳教書，例如《摩訶婆羅多》、《死亡之書》、《末日審判書》、《古騰堡聖經》、《唐‧吉訶德》、《綠野仙蹤》、《安妮日記》，又如達爾文的《物種起源》或路易‧布萊爾所創造的盲文系統，甚至企鵝出版集團所開創的史上第一本平裝書(書價不再高不可攀)，都對人類的歷史造成了重大的影響。
書中每一篇解說都搭配了許多精美的照片；以這類視覺系書籍聞名的DK出版社，再次發揮長才，帶領讀者走進一趟精心設計的書籍之旅。
