Negotiating a Book Contract: A Guide for Authors, Agents and Lawyers

Most publishing contracts are written by publishers' lawyers properly looking out for the publishers' interests. Publishing contracts can readily be negotiated that balance the rights and interests-and meet the needs-of author and publisher alike.
