Imperial College Press
Imperial College Press was formed in 1995 as a partnership between Imperial College London and World Scientific Publishing. As such, the Press benefits from both the expertise of one of the world's leading academic institutions and the experience of a well established and globally recognised Science, Technical and Medical publishing house. A modern success story, the venture has brought fresh ideas and enthusiasm to the world of academic publishing, with recent triumphs including Let There be Light (Montwill & Breslin), Classical Mechanics 5th ed (Kibble & Berkshire); The Physics of Solar Cells (Nelson); Science Research Writing (Glasman-Deal) and Physical Biology (Zewail) written by eminent scientist Ahmed Zewail, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1999.
They are guided in their editorial policy by an Editorial Advisory Board, made up of highly-regarded academics from various fields that come from Imperial College itself, thus strengthening the bond between institution and publishing house. They take working with their authors seriously, and aim to build strong and lasting relationships so that every angle of the publishing process is clear and easy.
Imperial College Press is committed to producing high-quality books in both print and electronic format, embracing advances in modern technology to produce excellent ebooks alongside traditional print books. To ensure maximum relevance to the scientific community, works published by the Press reflect the leading areas of teaching and research at Imperial College, notably Physics, Engineering and the Life Sciences. Within these areas of excellence we already publish many authors from around the globe at other leading institutions such as CalTech, Princeton University, the University of Cambridge and CERN.
