Birth of a Book

Here's a really cool video about how books are printed. I thought I would share it with all of you since we all would love to see this happen for our own works.

This is pretty amazing. I had no idea how these sort of books were printed or put together. Thanks for sharing! And oh yes, someday it'll be hardcover for me!
 
Is this how all hardcover books are printed these days? It seemed like it required a lot of manual intervention/labor. I'd sort of expect that book printing could be almost entirely automated by now.

That said, it's pretty neat to see all the steps that go into it.
