Artist Book definitions which extend my ideas rather than confine them:

• is “ a sequence of spaces”, [1] ‘
• a space-time sequence’[2] or an object containing ‘bookish’ elements such as “containment, sequence, repetition, moveable parts, and printed text and images”,[3] or,
• a sequence of pages within a container.[4] 
• the packaging of multiple planes held together in fixed or variable sequence by some kind of hinging mechanism, support, or container, associated with a visual/verbal content called a text
• Use of tactile, visual and text elements to extend meaning
