Why publish with CSP?
We have an overall joint email and mailing list of around 72,000 and
are constantly working towards the improvement of your book's exposure.
We advertise in academic journals, send a large number of review
copies, and are constantly working towards improving our marketing
through new or exploratory channels.
With few exceptions, we are able to turnaround books more quickly than
most academic presses ensuring that manuscripts do not wait
indefinitely in the pipeline. While the importance of total period for
which a book is 'in press' varies from discipline to discipline,
producing timely books promptly makes a difference in both marketing
and sales.
We have very generous copyright arrangements, allowing authors to keep
foreign translation rights completely. In most cases, we charge no
permissions fees for the reproduction of chapters or articles in books.
As licensing and permissions are a very significant proportion of the
revenue of most publishers, and as permissions charges can be
prohibitive and restricting for the overall dissemination of academics'
works, this is an important consideration for authors.
We have begun working towards the production of paperbacks and we
expect a considerable reduction of our average book price, which, given
that the majority of our books at present are hardback, is already low
for the specialised hardback industry.
The majority of our authors have positive experiences working with us.
