Aukes starts off the book by delivering information about the various forms of publishing; publishing houses or self-publishing or the ways that lie in-between.
This throws light on both the traditional and the new forms of issuing your book. I rated this book 3.5/5 stars.
This book provides information about what you need to keep in mind about imprints within a publishing house, the editor’s part in publishing, the significance of having an agent and the importance of keeping the book rights indisputably yours.
In the last half of the book, the author provides precise, concrete steps to follow while publishing your book.

A thorough introduction.
The tidy guide to publishing is a very quick overview of what takes many people years to learn. Publishing is a very broad topic but this guide does a great job of boiling it down, so it's much less intimidating.
