Bar-Ilan University Press - An Integration of Worlds

Bar-Ilan University Press is committed to influencing scientific research and public debate. In a time of dramatic changes in the worlds of research and publishing, we collaborate with academia, libraries, authors, and students to meet scientific needs and to shape the future of publishing. We publish original and important research and essays, after rigorous peer review, which we distribute both in Israel and around the world. Bar-Ilan University publishes titles covering a wide range of topics, with emphasis on Jewish studies, humanities and the social sciences. The production process is undertaken in full collaboration with the authors, after custom 'tailoring' for each manuscript in order to shorten the production time while adhering to the highest standards of quality, accuracy and aesthetics.
