Publications
Reflective of specialism, these have been organised into types and other headings. Varying in word length from several thousand words to hundreds of thousands of words per title, each contributes to its field in content, if not also in methodology and takes the reader on a journey of exploration of knowledge and understanding. See also ‘about (WHB).’
Books
Books are a passion. From their conceptualisation and research process to write up, referencing, illustrations, whether photography, maps, charts or other, each project is approached with much care, diligence and support throughout the process. Whether you are a lecturer, student, member of wider society, a professional, organisation, corporate or government body, our publications are produced via a series of stages that add to the title. Quality paper, ink, drying process, stitching or other form of assembly, cover design and other features are key concerns and are sourced from leading manufacturers and printing firms across the world. Due to the physical size of some of our titles, much thought is also required of these issues, in addition to carriage and shipping, whether local, national or global. World Heritage Books places much emphasis on originality and quality in our continuous effort to produce beautiful and meticulous books and associated material for the reader. Careful thought and consideration of projects, considerable effort, consultation, management, reflective practice and enhancement are key aspects of our work.
Essays
Although many will associate the term essay with a piece of writing written at school, college or university, the essay has a vast history and role in producing and disseminating knowledge, as demonstrated very visibly by the works of famous thinkers of the modern period. The essay series provides readers with the means to access knowledge and understanding of very specific subjects and issues, including some pioneering work, in considerable detail without the need to read a very large book. Our essay series contributes fresh insight and perspectives to an interesting and growing body of titles.
Journals
A fulcrum and platform for much specialisation, the journals of World Heritage Books are administered by Ephorus, our specialist academic journal division. Each journal has been carefully conceptualised to address gaps in knowledge and understanding and reflects the focus and approaches of our work and expertise. Presently under development, these journals offer great potential in advancing human knowledge and understanding in specialist fields and approaches and offer much scope for interdisciplinary collaboration. Published articles will benefit scholars, specialists and students and will be disseminated to a broader readership via outreach.
Newspaper
Reflective of the work of World Heritage Books, The Archaeologist Newspaper will provide a unique platform for the dissemination of knowledge and understanding of archaeology-related information to a global readership. First conceptualised by the director of WHB over twenty years ago, this publication will address a range a subjects, paradigms, issues and phenomena that will contribute perspective, insight and depth to the reader. In its scope, approaches and work, this specialist publication will extend the boundaries of public archaeology and introduce the discipline and engagement with archaeology to a broader audience whilst aiding those who work, teach and study in this field.
Special Projects
Whether a specialist academic book, something for the public or connoisseur, or a unique project that intersects these and other spheres, the originality and ability of World Heritage Books to engage in special projects is substantive and growing. We are pushing the boundaries of knowledge and understanding, including presentation and dissemination via these projects that play a role in contributing to individuals, families, society, specialist fields, bodies and the wider world.
