 Paperbacks weren't considered real books in the book trade. Up till then it was just murder mysteries, potboilers, 25-cent pocket books sold in newsstands. When the New York publishers started publishing quality paperbacks, there was no place to buy them.
  Lawrence Ferlinghetti

 If you target to women in their 50s and 60s, that's a big, prime, book-buying population. It's well-known in publishing that women buy more books than men. And these books are about sex . That's the perfect storm! They're about sex, they're geared to women and we know women buy books. You wonder, what took them so long to come up with this idea?

 [A long friendship with Milton Glaser resulted in another intense collaboration.] We used to sit together and have long conversations, even though he did not speak English and I do not speak French, ... so we decided to celebrate our misunderstanding and do a book together. The book is a back and forth continuous tableau titled 'The Conversation.'

 The launching of these treatments has been quite staggering. At least a million people are now being treated in the South. That's still perhaps only 15 per cent of all people who need treatment, but it's a significant change compared with two or three years ago.
