About MDPI Books
As an established academic publisher and open access pioneer, MDPI believes that the contemporary wave in academia of wider and faster dissemination of knowledge with open access should not be restricted to academic journals but should also capture and elevate book publishing.
Accordingly, MDPI Books offers academic authors the possibility to publish their work in various book forms. To us, whereas academic journals publish the very latest research according to their subject area, academic books are more an invitation to pause for a moment and allow for research reflection.

This reflection may take the form of an extensive discussion in short-form or full-length monographs, including doctoral theses from all fields, or it can take place in an academic conversation with other experts in edited volumes. Particularly the latter provide an opportunity for inter- and transdisciplinary exchange between or beyond different academic disciplines, respectively—the kind of exchange called for in view of the complex challenges we face today and in the future.
The nexus of science, other modes of knowledge, and their orientation towards a sustainable future are especially near MDPI Books’ heart—as reflected, e.g., in our book series. As a series books are particularly well-suited for recording continuous scholarly endeavors regarding a particular question.
