Perfume
Patrick süskind • 1985
Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency. This work is independently produced under the principle of nominative fair use.

Hamka • 2018
<p>Tema cerita yang diangkat sangat kental dengan budaya Minangkabau. Menampilkan keelokan alam dan budaya Minang, serta kritik Buya Hamka dengan berbagai praktik budaya yang dianggap tidak lagi relevan dengan perkembangan zaman. Buku ini mengisahkan Zainudin, seorang keturunan Minang-Makassar. Darah Minang ia dapat dari ayahnya, sedangkan ibunya adalah seorang Bugis.</p><p><br></p><p>Setelah kedua orang tuanya meninggal, Zainudin berniat mengunjungi bakonya. Melihat keinginan yang kuat, tak ada alasan bagi pengasuhnya, Mak Base, untuk tidak memberi izin. Di sana ia tinggal dengan Mak Tuo-nya. Sehari-hari ia belajar ilmu agama dan adat dari para tetua. Hingga suatu hari ia bertemu dengan Hayati, cintanya pada pandangan pertama. Tetapi Zainudin bukanlah orang Minang, ia tidak bersuku dan berbangsa. Meskipun ayahnya orang pribumi asli, tapi suku tidak diwariskan oleh ayahnya. Sehingga ia hanya menumpang, tidak ada mamak dan penghulu yang mengakuinya sebagai kemenakan. Ini menjadi alasan cintanya kandas dan tidak direstui keluarga Hayati.</p><p><br></p><p>Melalui kisah roman ini, Buya Hamka ingin mengkritik sistem pernikahan di Minang masa itu, yang mendiskriminasi jika bukan dari suku Minang tidak boleh menikahi anak gadis yang berasal dari Minang. Orang yang tak bersuku Minang dianggap tidak berbangsa dan tidak paham akan adat Minang. Sehingga dianggap sebagai sebuah aib.</p><p><br></p><p>[Gema Insani] [Buya Hamka] [Hamka]</p>
