What is your book about? What you intend to put
on the back cover is the perfect answer to this question.
Book size?
Dust jacket: full colour or spot? Although more
challenging to design than full colour, using spot colour can
reduce printing costs if you are doing an offset print run.
Cover: full colour casewrap or gilded title lettering?
If the cover is casewrap then a dust jacket is not required.
Do you have art or photos?
