value for money.

of the backlist titles from our Economics and Business & Management eCollections.

Business & Management. In addition, you acquire all the frontlist titles, which adds
up to roughly 160 new eBooks per year.

Politics eCollection, as well as the 250 or so new eBook titles published each year.
