Introducing...the new look

The Introducing series is a truly unique combination of words and illustrations which explains some of the most challenging ideas humankind has ever produced. The series has sold in excess of 3 million books worldwide. You can read more about its history at www.introducingbooks.com ! Whether you are a university student with exams to pass or just want to explore some big ideas, introduce yourself to Introducing.

Introducing is a series of graphic guides to some of the biggest thinkers and subjects from the history of ideas.



Each Introducing book is a carefully constructed mixture of concise, authoritative text and illustrations which are often witty and always intelligent - and which help get the point across. After all, as Alice says in Lewis Carroll’s classic book: “What is the use of a book without pictures or conversations?”

The series’ authors are mainly university lecturers in the particular field and the writing is - we ensure - always crystal clear and avoids jargon. You’ll learn all you need to know to get started in the subject that the book covers but you’ll learn a great deal more too. You’ll find yourself inspired, making connections between different areas you’ve never thought of before.

“Buy one now,” Don Patterson urged in the Guardian. “Feel smarter almost immediately.”

The series covers a huge range of topics. Some titles - Philosophy and Psychology, for example - are more general. Some, on individual thinkers or particular areas - Plato, Freud, or Ethics, for example - are more specific. You’ll find that Introducing books offer something that similar introductory texts simply can’t. They make learning an enjoyable, interactive experience.
