Book Position

From the Blog Marginal Revolution: How many books should be facing out?

An interesting question, how should a bookstore optimally display information and provide a large inventory in a finite space, there is a trade-off between usability (and thus sales and profit ) and inventory (and thus sales and profit).

(Hence the invention and success of Amazon.)
