To provide an adhesive-bound book in which a magnetic material does not attract attention and it is suitable for mass production and a countermeasure to unjust carrying-out is applied and a method for manufacturing it.

In the adhesive-bound book in which the text and a cover are bound with an adhesive, the adhesive-bound book in which an adhesive or a pressure-sensitive adhesive and a magnetic material consisting of a double structure of a magnetic layer with a high permeability/a low coercive force and the second magnetic layer with an intermediate permeability/a high coercive force are provided on the inside of the back cover is provided. In addition, a method for manufacturing the adhesive- bound book in which in a process for manufacturing the adhesive-bound book, in the process in which sections to be the text are laminated and cutting the back, raising fibers and pasting are performed and a cover is stuck on this, on the inside of the back of the cover taken from a cover feeder, by means of a pasting device and a wire feeding device, the cover is stuck under a condition where the magnetic material consisting of the double structure of the magnetic layer with a high permeability/a low coercive force and the second magnetic layer with an intermediate permeability/a high coercive force is held, is provided.
