What to expect when you propose a book to Punica.
A synopsis, table of contents, sample chapter, and a note on audience and comparable titles. No agent required.
We commission external reviews from specialists in your field, then discuss the reports with you openly.
On contract, our editorial and design teams produce the book in print and open eBook, with global distribution and indexing.
Tell us about your project and we’ll be in touch within ten working days.
Why Punica
Substantive editorial attention from specialists, not a conveyor belt. We care how the argument reads and how the book looks.
Journal articles are open access under CC BY; book chapters can be made open with institutional or funder support.
A Digital Object Identifier (DOI) for every book, metadata shared openly for indexing and discovery, and worldwide print and digital distribution.
