What is the publishing process of monographs?

A book has to go through many links and a series of specific procedures from topic selection, soliciting contributions, compiling, editing, processing and publishing. The specific process is as follows:

1. Publishing houses generally propose topics according to the long-term and short-term topic selection planning and the current and potential market demand, find suitable authors (translators), and sign book publishing contracts with authors (translators).

2. In addition to the publishing house actively soliciting contributions from the author (translator), the author (translator) can also take the initiative to contact the publishing house to recommend the manuscript he wants to write (translate) or submit the written (translated) manuscript. We hope that the author (translator) will contact the publishing house and make a choice before writing.

3. After the author (translator) completes the first draft and submits it to the publishing house, the publishing house should conduct a comprehensive review of the manuscript. When necessary, the publishing house will invite relevant experts or hold a review meeting to review the manuscript. Generally, the translated manuscript needs to be revised, and if necessary, it depends on the trial version.

4. Manuscripts that have been edited, reviewed and processed shall be sent to typesetting after binding design, proofreading according to regulations, printing, binding and official publication.

The basic function of publishing:

Publishing is the product of the economic, political and cultural development of human society. Publications condense human thoughts and wisdom, collect the experience and achievements of scientific and technological inventions and social practice activities, and reflect all aspects of social life. The history of publication is the history of human civilization. The development of publishing industry plays an extremely important role in social progress and development.

In the final analysis, the promotion of publishing to society lies in the accumulation, expansion and dissemination of human scientific and technological knowledge and advanced ideas. Once people master scientific and technological knowledge and progressive ideas, they can improve productivity and promote social development.

Before writing existed in human society, people inherited the knowledge and experience of predecessors, mainly relying on oral, physical and simple symbols, which had a narrow spread and slow speed, and with the change of time, the content taught became more and more inaccurate. Through writing, especially publications, knowledge and experience can be rapidly expanded and spread.
