YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEvery book you pull off the shelf or pick up at a yard sale is the product of thousands of decisions, big and small, tying together vast supply chains and armies of workers from around the world.
In our latest episode: Planet Money sets out to actually write, design, and manufacture a book. We go spelunking deep inside the bowels of the Lakeside Book Company to watch the brand new Planet Money book roll hot off the press. There will be trade wars, sunken cargo containers filled with lost cookbooks, deforestation regulations, and just a whiff of scratch and sniff.
