Sirtel,
For some books, I noticed that the knowledge graph (the section on the right-hand side) contains the full title and subtitle.
For other books, such as Perennial Seller (by Ryan Holiday) has a truncated title in the knowledge graph.

It loooks like this:
Quote:
Perennial Seller: The Art of Making and Marketing Work that ...
or

https://www.google.com/search?q=How+Insects+Work shows:
Quote:
How Insects Work: An Illustrated Guide to the Wonders of Form and ...
Why does Google do that?

I initially though it had to do with character length. But look at these long titles that are complete in the knowledge graph:
Quote:
That's Not English: Britishisms, Americanisms and What Our English Says About Us
or
Quote:
The Best Punctuation Book, Period: A Comprehensive Guide for Every Writer, Editor, Student, and Businessperson
or
