Publisher HarperCollins Publishers, US, has announced a three-year publishing partnership with The Wall Street Journal. Under the deal, both parties will develop books written by the Journal's expert editors and reporters across a variety of topics for a wide range of readers. Both HarperCollins Publishers and Dow Jones & Company, which publishes The Wall Street Journal, are owned by News Corp.
The programme will be overseen by Steve Ross, group president of the Collins Group, a division of Harper Collins, and Alan Murray, deputy managing editor at The Wall Street Journal, in conjunction with the Publishers and editorial teams from the Collins, Collins Business, Collins Living and Collins Design imprints.
The first guidebook to be published under the agreement will be 'The Wall Street Journal Guide to the End of Wall Street As We Know It: What You Need to Know About the Greatest Financial Crisis of Our Time - And How to Survive It,' by Dave Kansas. The book is a definitive guide for Main Street readers who want to make sense of what's happening on Wall Street. It will be published by Collins Business in January 2009. Additionally, Collins Business will publish 'The Wall Street Journal Guide to Management' in early 2010.
