Volume

What a Palliative Medicine print job actually runs to

We hold 13 oncology & haematology titles in the catalogue and we know their page counts because we have printed them. They run from 305 pages to 2,787, median 718. Here are the three heaviest, with what each would cost as a complete black-and-white bound copy:

TitlePagesB&W, bound
Hematology Basic Principles and Practice 8th edition 20232,787₹1,430
AJCC Cancer Staging Manual (8th edition)1,051₹570
Tata Memorial Centre Textbook of Oncology 20241,025₹550
Almost nobody prints one of those cover to cover. A typical Palliative Medicine order is 150–400 pages — the chapters you are weak on, a coaching set, or your own compiled notes. At the median of 718 pages a full title would be two spiral volumes, or one hard-bound and about ₹400 in black and white; a 300-page working set is about ₹190.

Colour or black and white

Which Palliative Medicine pages actually need colourgreyscale

Symptom-control protocols, drug tables and communication frameworks are text throughout.

Run it in black and white. Black and white at 50 paise a page is not a compromise here — it is what the images already are. On a 300-page set that is about ₹190 instead of ₹340.

Binding

How we would bind it

Above about 500 pages a single spiral stops lying flat and the coil starts to tear the first pages. We split Palliative Medicine sets of this size into two volumes, or hard-bind them if they are going on a shelf rather than into a bag. Binding is ₹40 per bound volume either way, so splitting a set into two costs ₹40 more, not double.
