Definition from [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dos-à-dos_binding Wikipedia article on Dos à dos binding]:
- Dos-à-dos binding is a form of book-binding in which two separate works are bound together back to back, with each upside down relative to the other. Books bound in this way thus have no back cover, but have two front covers. When a reader reaches the end of the text of one of the works, the next page is the (upside-down) last page of the other work.
e.g., Joanna Russ' Souls and James Tiptree, Jr.'s Houston, Houston, Do You Read? were bound this way in the Tor Double series (#11).
