You do not need a Kindle to read our books
Read the five ways our ebooks are read by anyone whether or not they own the actual Kindle device. Plus we have PDF and rtf anyway, and paperbacks. So digital books should not scare the non-Amazon readers. Even Kindle apps for various devices are free and do not in any way require your owning a Kindle itself. Amazon just wants to sell the books, and we do too.

We do paper editions too
Although we specialize in quality digital publishing, we are happy to produce and sell internationally your work in paperback form, through traditional sales as well as digital. Existing print books that have shown the market sustains print sales, for example, should be published in both forms. And we can work with your traditional publisher to give you a digital option, or publish a quality paperback ourselves. Keep your options open.

We are not just categories

We already have some on the way, but our library has room for more. We also seek submission of original manuscripts and dissertations in these and related subjects. Don’t let Holmes down. And don’t yell fire in a crowded theatre, which was his judicial equivalent of Get Off My Lawn.

Woodrow Wilson on Constitutional Government in the United States: His Study of Politics Just a Few Years Before He Became President
Woodrow Wilson's 1908 classic is a well-written argument for looking at the Constitution as enabling reforms and progressive changes to how people govern themselves rather than as a civic straightjacket. It is timely today as judges and politicians debate the Framers' original intent versus the promise and problems of a Living Constitution. It was timely then as it foreshadowed his own strong presidency and progressive reforms.
