Course Adoption


All of our titles are well-suited to use in the university classroom, and many of our books have been adopted for use in undergraduate and graduate courses in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Asia, and elsewhere. Unlike many other publishers, we always keep all of our books in print, and they are always readily available for order by your university's bookstore. We also strive to keep our prices as low as possible, as we are sensitive to the rising costs of education for students.

If you adopt one of our titles for your course, we are happy to supply you with a complimentary desk copy of the book. Please contact us via the form on our Contact page, or have your bookstore contact us, with the information regarding your course (title, semester, enrollment), and the address to which the copy should be sent.


If you are considering adopting one of our books but would like to review the book first, we will be happy to send you a digital copy of the book in .PDF format for you to review. Unfortunately, we are no longer able to supply free review copies of printed books; however, should you prefer to see a print copy of the book in lieu of a free digital copy, we will be happy to send you one at a discount of 50% off the list price, and should you eventually adopt the book for your course, we will happily refund that charge.


If you have any questions about the appropriateness of a particular text for your course or any other questions about our titles or policies, please do not hesitate to contact us.


Press/Reviewer Copies

If you review books for a magazine, newspaper, blog, scholarly journal, or other media outlet, and would like to request a copy of one of our titles for review in your publication, please feel free to contact us. We are generally happy to accommodate such requests and only ask that we be supplied with a copy of the review once it is published.
