We have a long-established history of publishing, including a number of series in recent years with the renowned humanities Institutes based at the School of Advanced Study at the University of London, and have published over 750 books. In recent years, we have focused on growing our open access books programme, and our books have reached over 1,000,000 downloads in just a few years.
