Sounds encouraging!

As everyone seems to have ignored my attempt to start another thread in the "Other Topics of Interest" section titled Book Publishing I shall ask the question here.

Prompted Claude and George's posts and the apparent low price and heavy discounting of Mr Balfour's new book, I was wondering who sets the recommended retail price for a new book?

And do the Author or Publisher have any say about discounting, particularly pre launch?
