I just thought I should mention Lulu <http://www.lulu.com/> which allows 
everybody to publish a book at little financial risk.

Perhaps there are other similar sites, I couldn't recall the one I first 
saw (can be this one...), and Lulu is the first to come when googling 
for "self published books"...

I suppose this is possible by modern printing techniques (print on 
demand). Perhaps these books are more expensive than printing some 
thousand at once, but it is safer -- I recall a so-called French editor 
that took any manuscript, printed it for a strong fee, but let the 
author distribute it, otherwise just stored it in a warehouse...
