General information

Santérus Förlag (Publishing) is an independent publishing house that was founded in December 1999.

We strive to publish books that we feel will benefit general knowledge as well as contribute to the joy of reading. Our ambition is also to try and make them look good, since we believe that appearances are important to the buyer's pleasure in owning a book. People who buy books are important of course, especially if one aims to publish more than one book.

We specialize in non-fiction literature for an academic and professional market in the fields of the social sciences and the humanities, but we also publish general non-fiction, mainly in general history, cultural history, popular science and psychology.

We believe that in order to go as far as possible in one's endeavours to understand both the big and the small, knowledge in one discipline is not sufficient. We are therefore especially interested in manuscripts that transcend and and form links between disciplines.

Hence, the readers and buyers of our books are people with a love of reading and passion for general knowledge on the one hand, and professionals at the universities and in private enterprises and public administration on the other.

Santérus Academic Press Sweden (SAPS)

This imprint collects our academic literature that we publish as Book-on-Demand in English and in Swedish.

The process operates as follows:

1. We print books one by one and deliver them to the customer. No physical stock exists.

2. The books can be ordered wherever the customer is situated, through any bookstore that buys from wholesalers in the US or in the UK or directly from the Internet bookstores Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk and, for some titles, Amazon.de.

3. The books do not go out of print, unless together with the author we decide to take the book off the market.

4. Academic writers who aim for an international audience can reach it through SAPS, even if they lack connections to the major international academic publishers. We make decisions more quickly and easily and our book prices are not a deterrent compared with those of the major academic publishers.

5. The areas of publishing are the social sciences and the humanities, but will eventually include more sub-areas than the ones listed on our site at present.
