The thinking machines have been defeated but the struggle for humanity's future continues. 
Gilbertus Albans has founded the Mentat School, a place where humans can learn the efficient techniques of thinking machines. But Gilbertus walks an uneasy line between his own convictions and compromises in order to survive the Butlerian fanatics, led by the madman Manford Torondo and his Swordmaster Anari Idaho. Mother Superior Raquella attempts to rebuild her Sisterhood School on Wallach IX, with her most talented and ambitious student, Valya Harkonnen, who also has another goal―to exact revenge on Vorian Atreides, the legendary hero of the Jihad, whom she blames for her family's downfall. 
Meanwhile, Josef Venport conducts his own war against the Butlerians. VenHold Spacing Fleet controls nearly all commerce thanks to the superior mutated Navigators that Venport has created, and he places a ruthless embargo on any planet that accepts Manford Torondo's anti-technology pledge, hoping to starve them into submission. But fanatics rarely surrender easily . . . 
The Mentats, the Navigators, and the Sisterhood all strive to improve the human race, but each group knows that as Butlerian fanaticism grows stronger, the battle will be to choose the path of humanity's future―whether to embrace civilization, or to plunge into an endless dark age.

Is that what you are wanting?
Yep, and you have given me a clue. If I access the same book in the same library from a vanilla calibre 6.17 portable install I get what I want from BD->Copy->Full details… (except, multi-value columns don't get separators).

### Blurb:
What is wrong with today's banking system? The past few years have shown that risks in banking can impose significant costs on the economy. Many claim, however, that a safer banking system would require sacrificing lending and economic growth. "The Bankers' New Clothes" examines this claim and the narratives used by bankers, politicians, and regulators to rationalize the lack of reform, exposing them as invalid.
Admati and Hellwig argue we can have a safer and healthier banking system without sacrificing any of the benefits of the system, and at essentially no cost to society. They show that banks are as fragile as they are not because they must be, but because they want to be--and they get away with it. Whereas this situation benefits bankers, it distorts the economy and exposes the public to unnecessary risks. Weak regulation and ineffective enforcement allowed the buildup of risks that ushered in the financial crisis of 2007-2009. Much can be done to create a better system and prevent crises. Yet the lessons from the crisis have not been learned.
Admati and Hellwig seek to engage the broader public in the debate by cutting through the jargon of banking, clearing the fog of confusion, and presenting the issues in simple and accessible terms. "The Bankers' New Clothes" calls for ambitious reform and outlines specific and highly beneficial steps that can be taken immediately.

### Notes:
The recent string of bank collapses in the US were at least partly driven by the Federal Reserve Board’s tightening of financial conditions. Now there’s a fear that they could contribute to a broader credit crunch.
The Fed’s twice-yearly financial stability report, released on Monday, warned that ongoing stresses in the banking system could lead to a broader contraction in credit and result in a marked economic slowdown.

I tried running installed 6.17 with no plugins, and I still got everything (except long text columns with heading on top) concatenated in one long string.

So, it appears that a calibre setting is having an effect on what gets copied - given it's the same on all my libraries it is probably a global setting. I'll do a test in safe mode to make sure its not an interaction with something else.
