1539 George Kerscher and the Development of e-Books - Part 1 (Sep. 23, 2015)


 George Kerscher created the first accessible digital books and went on to
develop standards that are now the foundation of electronic publishing. This
week hosts Nancy and Peter Torpey talk with him about how these standards
were assimilated into mainstream publishing. Next week we'll hear about some
of the quandaries that arose as a result.
