Wiley’s Got me Covered

Thursday, 1 February 2007 14:33

Yesterday I received a copy of the proposed cover for my book, BreakthroughIT: Supercharging Organizational Value through Technology. The cover somehow makes the book seem all the more real, although I’ve penned a good 140+ manuscript pages it now has a face to the world, at least in draft format.

I was originally lukewarm on the cover but it has grown on my, and breaks the mold of the stereotypical business book with a large times font, clipart and a generic byline. Let me know what you think.

i dig it. i’m not familiar with typical business books – but i think this reflects the dynamic nature of the title – and i would imagine – the content.

Let’s hope so! Thanks for the comment… the only thing that slightly troubles me is the tilted text for the subtitle. I am also having a raging debate with my better half over whether “through” should be capitalized in title case. Any grammar experts want to comment?

i think the through should be lower case. but the book looks cool, and i’m pretty sure 99.5/100 people wouldn’t notice whether or not the through were capitalizerd. and even if they did, they would face the same moral conundrum we now impose upon ourselves…
