Professor Philip Parker has created hundreds of thousands of books on his patented computer system
More than 100,000 titles are attributed to him on Amazon, and another 700,000 to his company, ICON Group International Inc.
Philip M Parker is Professor of Marketing at America's INSEAD Business School.
Professor Parker's patented algorithm can create books on certain subjects in approximately twenty minutes. Common categories include technical and business reports, crossword puzzle books for learning languages and rare disease overviews. All the titles are automatically generated by the software.
It is reported that the next book genre to be computer-generated by Professor Parker will be the romance novel.
