The house also issued another periodical, The Presbyterian Review, a quarterly under the editorship of a board of professors connected with the Princeton and Union Theological Seminaries. This ponderous-looking magazine was not composed of what one might call "light reading," and as the price of a single copy was eighty cents, and the advertisements it could reasonably expect were necessarily limited in number, the periodical was rather difficult to move. Thus the whole situation at the Scribners' was adapted to give Edward an all-round training in the publishing business. It was an exceptional opportunity.

白话

斯克里布纳出版社还发行另一份期刊《普林斯顿评论》,是一份由普林斯顿和协和神学院教授组成的编委会编辑的季刊。这本杂志看起来厚重严肃,内容不是轻松读物,单本售价八毛钱,能拉到的广告也有限,所以发行起来相当困难。但正是这种局面让博克得到全方位的出版训练:从编辑、生产到广告、发行,各种环节都接触到了。对想入行的年轻人来说,这种不完美的环境反而是难得的学习机会,因为什么都要碰一点。

《普林斯顿评论》是斯克里布纳出版社发行的学术季刊,读者面窄、经营困难。博克因参与其事务而获得全面锻炼。

今日一问

你是否愿意接手一件看起来吃力不讨好的任务,来换取跨环节的学习经验?
