There is no standard thickness for this type of book - most commuter books run about 2 to 3 cm but long novels may be over 5 cm. Paperbacks also range from cheaply produced perfect bound versions printed on (essentially) newsprint to good quality trade paper backs which are on heavy clay filled paper stitched together.

How will you determine the thickness of one page of a book?

You can determine the thickness of one page of an existing book by measuring the thickness of all the pages together and then dividing by the number of pages. Note that the number of pages will be about half of the "page numbers" since most books will assign one number to the front of a page and a second number to the back of the same page. You have to remember to count unnumbered pages such as the title page and any blank flyleaf pages. To determine the thickness of a page for a planned book, a publisher will make a decision about the type of paper they wish to print on. As and example, printers will typically choose a very thin type of paper for volumes of the Bible, which has a few thousand pages so that it can be compact enough for people to carry. High end books may use heavier paper in order to be more durable and carry a more elegant "heft".
