The high level estimate is in the range of $3000 to $5000 for a print run of about 500 books. It is highly dependent on how much of the work you can do yourself and what you have to contract out. So for example, if you can typeset the book and do the cover design you can save some there. Editing can also be a big cost. Then the other you can control is deciding how big of a book to write. I hope that helps. I'll write a post with some of basic concepts later. Tim FT,
