Brookeline produces books.

WHAT IS A BOOK? 

A book is a document that you read (as opposed to watching or viewing) which aims to present a particular thesis, idea or argument to a particular readership or audience. 

A book is generally still thought of as a document that is printed on paper and bound into an individualized presentation. However, online books and e-books are increasing in popularity. 

Printed books have a security advantage -- there is only the one copy you are reading and this reduces the tendency for copying and re-use.

Printed books give a sense of intimacy and privacy to the reader, which is ironic in that when multiple copies of a book are distributed an idea is spread rather widely (and sometimes quite quickly).

Reasons that people write books.

Book writing and production is a lot of work. Why do people do it?

TYPE-A PERSONALITY: Some people love books so much they want to create one.

EXPRESSIVE: Some people have had such a profound or interesting experience that they want to share it.

TEACHING-COMPULSIVE: Some people are born teachers and really excel at compiling their thoughts in an organized manner with the goal of imparting a body of knowledge.

HEALING: Some people have lost loved ones or undergone traumatic experiences; by sharing their story they heal themselves and others.

EGO: Famous athletes and the rags to riches stories are usually popular.  People who accomplish great things in business or their own personal lives are interesting -- they want to tell their tale and people want to know about it.

HELPFUL:  Some people are genuinely helpful and wish to show others the ropes in a wide range of how-to books.

THOUGHTFUL:  Natural-born thinkers spend years in their heads then come out with some amazing new ideas. Leading-edge thinkers and 'first-adopter' personality types love these sorts of books.

PRODUCERS: Some people love to see an idea become manifested into reality.
