Open Book Publishers

Open Book Publishers is changing the nature of the traditional academic book. Their books are published in hardback, paperback and ebook editions, but they also publish free online editions of every title in PDF, HTML and XML formats that can be read via their website, downloaded, reused or embedded anywhere. In addition, their digital publishing model allows them to extend our books well beyond the printed page (for more information about some of their innovative titles, please see our blog post). They are creating interactive books, and works that incorporate moving images, links and sound into the fabric of the text. More traditional titles are equipped with digital resources freely available on their website, including extra chapters, reviews, links and image galleries — these can be found on the individual product page for each book.
