Information for Students
At the beginning of a course you’re given a reading list and it can be hard to know where to start. We know your student budget probably means you can’t buy all the texts, so how do you choose the vital few books to get you through your course?
Policy Press textbooks are designed to help you find the information you need quickly and easily, with learning features such as chapter summaries, key points, full bibliographies and comprehensive indices. They also contain the latest research and thinking from key academics so you can be sure that your work is relevant and up-to-date. We have highlighted our latest titles below but use the navigation on the left to find more books in your subject.
To keep up to date with all our latest books, why not join our mailing list? We’re normally running a special discount or promotion for subscribers so it’s definitely worth signing up.
Feedback from the people who actually use our textbooks is really important to us. If you have any comments or questions, or if you feel there are gaps in your reading list that need to be filled, please let us know. You can comment on individual books using the customer review feature on this site, or drop us an email at tpp-info@bristol.ac.uk.
