Books
With our book series and book titles, our program covers all disciplines of human medicine and related sciences.
Any Discipline of Human Medicine and Related Sciences. All in One Place.
With roots that run deep in publishing, our portfolio in books has a strong trunk with many branches. More than 9,000 titles are available to you at this very moment. From scientific book series and monographs to Fast Facts–our medical handbooks for healthcare professionals and patients–our book program covers all disciplines of human medicine and related sciences.
Over the past years, our selection has shifted from specialized, state-of-the-art research topics to titles with an emphasis on clinical and practical relevance. Certain specialities are now available in several subcategories. For example, we are the only publishing company offering a complete, in-depth and up-to-date coverage of research on the retina, a subspecialty of both ophthalmology and pediatric endocrinology.
What Does the Future of Books Look Like?
Responding to the need of authors, editors and readers to make content available more quickly, book chapters will become available and citable by DOI as soon as they're ready for publication without waiting for the whole volume to be completed. This is our first step in rethinking long-form content.
For ISCN - An International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature, a standard reference volume for human cytogeneticists, molecular biologists, technicians, and students for the interpretation and communication of human cytogenetic nomenclature, we have extended the rigid book covers with an always up-to-date and available online version.
