The story of Oxford University Press spans five centuries of printing and publishing, leading from the early days of printing to worldwide publishing in academic research, education, and English language learning. Becoming a world-wide business The twentieth century saw the large-scale expansion of OUP as offices were opened in the USA (in 1896), Canada, Australia, India, Pakistan, East Asia and Africa. This volume
explores the growth in OUP's publishing for general readers, education, and English language teaching, as well as for scholarship and research. It also considers the technological revolution that
changed the printing business, and the new management challenges identified in the influential Waldock Report of 1970.
