I just finished reading a brief novel--about 240 pages--and when I finished, I realized I had counted no fewer than 6 typographical errors. Mind you, this wasn't a self-published book, but was put out more than a decade ago by a Harper Collins imprint, and is still appearing on bookstore shelves, mistakes and all.
It got me wondering how often books manage to get printed with errors in them. After they pass through so many hands, how can errors still appear in the final version? And who bears the final responsibility for letting mistakes get through?
