Meet the Team: How Did We Get Into Publishing?
Getting started in the publishing industry can seem like a daunting feat, with many different areas and roles to choose from.

These range from sales, marketing, production, publicity, product, digital, legal, finance and more.

Revolutionary textbook saves students thousands
By Alex Christodoulou

But when you think of game-changers in the publishing industry, I’ll wager a textbook on Australian politics and policy doesn’t immediately spring to mind.
