About us

An independent book publishing company specialising in Good Books for Serious Readers.

Multi-discipline

Kingston University Press is located in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, a flourishing academic and educational centre which embraces numerous disciplines.

Drawing on the links established by Faculty courses such as Creative Writing, Publishing Studies, History, English Literature etc. and reflecting the work of our Centres of Excellence, particularly in Human Rights, Suburban Studies and Life Narratives, Kingston University Press will publish across a broad range of subject areas but will favour titles which lend themselves to a wide distribution in the book trade as well as those which have an academic market.

Activities

KUP are considering titles for the three years from Spring 2008. We are interested in acquiring UK rights for suitable titles as well as co-originating titles with non-UK presses. Kingston University Press also has a number of original titles with rights available.
