INTRODUCTION
Technology is reshaping the way we teach and learn and, as a result,
how we at Prentice Hall Business Publishing (PHBP) build production plans
and schedules for the next generation of textbooks. The relationship
between Author and Publisher is changing as well, evolving as a closer
partnership and initiating much earlier in the publishing process. This
facilitates earlier instock dates as well as prepublication marketing
efforts.
As a step toward a smoother and more efficient production process for
your textbook, this website is meant to act as an aid for you, the
author. It outlines briefly what is needed from you and provides
electronic materials to assist you through the production of your
manuscript. The information on this site is not intended to be specific to
your text, but rather a general outline for informational purposes.
This site is focused primarily on successful submission of manuscript
and production start-up. Once the manuscript is in production, further
documentation will be sent to communicate scheduling of text production as
well as supplements and website production. We hope that both experienced
and first-time authors will benefit from this guide, as the publication
process evolves.
We look forward to working with you and welcome your comments and
suggestions.
