    publishers: validation.array().items(validation.object().keys({
        name: validation.string()
    }))
};

var validateThis = {
    title: "Conjuring",
    author: "MR X",
    cost: 1200

validation.validate(validateThis, againstThis, function(err, result) {
	console.log("err :-", err);
	console.log("result :-", result);
