About

By publishing serious works that contribute to a global understanding of human affairs, Yale University Press aids in the discovery and dissemination of light and truth, lux et veritas, which is a central purpose of Yale University. For more than a hundred years the Press has published books and other materials that have furthered scholarly investigation, advanced interdisciplinary inquiry, stimulated public debate, educated both within and outside the classroom, and enhanced cultural life. 

In its commitment to increasing the range and vigor of intellectual pursuits within the university and elsewhere, Yale University Press continually extends its horizons to embody university publishing at its best. And now, through Yale Scholarship Online (YSO), the Press widens access to its academic monographs.
