A microwave binder is used in conjunction with paper tape which is coated with one or more formulations of encapsulated, fast setting, water soluble adhesives to bind pages of a book. The tape spine adhesive is of sufficient thickness to allow it to penetrate into the edges of the pages of the bound edge. The microwave heating causes the capsules to rupture, releasing the adhesives to flow into the bound edge of the book.
