Pelagic is distinctive in a number of ways:

•   We are closely involved in the subjects in which we publish; attending key conferences, working with leading academics and other authors, and maintaining a strong social media presence (YouTube | Facebook | Twitter).
•   Our books are edited and designed to the highest standards by subject-specialist editors.
•   We have an aggressive sales and marketing strategy with our books widely available from key specialist booksellers, library suppliers, wholesalers, online bookshops and direct from www.pelagicpublishing.com.
•   All of our books are created in eBook formats and available from all leading eBook stores and library platforms.
