This work presents in a clear and precise way the technical and decorative processes which make it possible to protect or embellish the books. It opens with the history of bookbinding, then presents the tools and materials needed to carry out this activity, the different parts that make up a book and, in detail, the main types of binding and finishing, without forgetting the manufacture of folders and protective cases. So many subjects that will appeal to beginner bookbinders, but also to bibliophiles, historians, publishers, restorers and, more generally, all those who are passionate about the world of books.
