: Re: Springer or CRC versus self-publishing I have an IT textbook that is about 120,000 words which was accepted for publishing at several very reputable publishers. My goal is to get the text out

Trad publishers are far better for this. How would you market and sell it yourself? How would you compete against vetted books by publishers if you are not a very famous name in the field already?

If your name is Einstein or Hawking then self publishing would make you more money. Charging less while still making more because you get a bigger slice would also reach more people. win win!

So how famous are you? How hard do you want to market this book?
