Most academic humanities/social-sciences books are fine; they tend to be somewhere around 6x9". The one you linked to, though, is a bit questionable. I wouldn't recommend 8" if a lot of your books have pages that large relative to font and pictures; I imagine the pix would lose a lot of usability.

You can see for yourself by seeing what a 1024x768 px version would look like, and making it the right physical size...
