IUSS Press |
IUSS Press is the publishing house managed by the Eucentre, created by the Institute for advanced Study of Pavia – IUSS in 2002, with the following aims:
providing top quality publications at a fraction of the cost of conventional publishing houses, reducing price of acquisition of technical books (especially for students);enabling faster publication of state-of-the-art manuscripts by reducing the time between submittal of authors' drafts and final production;producing high quality textbooks, stimulating renowned experts by providing a higher royalty to authors than what is typically available.
Every new volume is evaluated by a publishing committee, that takes into consideration the technical-scientific level of the volume, the publishing interest and the expected marketing and sales success. After the approval from the publishing committee, all the arrangements are made for the publication of the volume. The currently available publications cover several scientific areas such as Earthquake Engineering, Physics, Juridical Studies, Integrated Environment Management and Management of Complex Systems. The IUSS Press publications are distributed by the Eucentre, through the website http://www.iusspress.it . Recently agreements have been made with the Italian bookstores Feltrinelli for the distribution in Italy, and with Amazon concerning the distribution abroad.
