Taylor and Francis publish hundreds of journals and thousands of new books each year, from offices all over the world. Every month, a selection of books from Routledge, Psychology Press, Focal Press, and Informa Law are picked as part of our Books of the Month campaign.

Jeremy North, Managing Director of Routledge Books, says: "The Books of the Month selection is individual and quirky. The books are chosen to display the wonderful range of our publishing; to highlight interesting design and production challenges; and to reflect recent acquisitions. Or just because they catch the eye in some way."
