Our mission at Bloomsbury Press can be simply stated: to publish the best non-fiction being written today.



We look for books that change the conversation: works that ask fresh questions about vital subjects, or find fresh answers to time-honored questions; that offer insight into crucial issues of our day; that make groundbreaking scholarship accessible to a general audience; that tell the stories that define who we are. Equally important, we seek works that revel in writing as a creative art—books that are a pleasure to read.



Like our sister imprints at Bloomsbury, we strive to treat our authors as valued partners and to present them to readers with flair and creativity.



The subjects we publish in range from history, politics, and economics, to science, art, and philosophy. Our list includes some of the most distinguished journalists, academics, and independent scholars at work today, and we believe, writers who will become known as the leading authors of the future.
