Review Copies

You would like to discuss a new Peter Lang title in your publication or have been asked to write a review?

We are happy to support you with a printed or digital review copy. You can send your request using the form here. Please indicate the publication in which the review will appear or the editorial office that commissioned the review.

We are very interested in the media response to our books and document it for our authors. We are therefore pleased to receive an electronic offprint of a review at reviews@peterlang.com or a reference where a review is published online.

Open Access titles can be downloaded as free PDFs from our website. In this case too, we are grateful to receive a notification to reviews@peterlang.com when a review was published.

To be informed about new publications in your field, sign up for our monthly review newsletter: www.peterlang.com/reviewnewsletter
