Addison-Wesley and Benjamin Cummings (AW & BC) are part of the largest global
educational publisher, developing and selling textbooks, multimedia
and learning programs in major academic disciplines to the higher
education, professional, and English language teaching markets throughout
the world.
AW & BC offer the benefits of both
a small publishing house and a global publisher, and those benefits
are clear to those who publish with us. Behind us is our large
parent company, Pearson
Education, whose resources guarantee strong development support
for every book and the experience of educational publishing's
largest international sales force. On a day-to-day basis, however,
we approach publishing as small imprints, which allows us to pay
close attention to each individual author and project.
Market Leadership
AW & BC publish the market-leading
titles in Biology, Computing, Economics, Human Anatomy
& Physiology, Physics, Mathematics, Microbiology, and Statistics.
We take full advantage of our editorial expertise and unsurpassed
market awareness to launch both successful first editions and
innovative revisions.
Focus
Our focus in relatively few disciplines allows us to know our customers well. We spend significant time on market development and
each product team includes dedicated experts who research the market to provide editors with valuable feedback throughout the
publishing process. This early collaboration with the market ensures a customer-oriented development process and paves the way for success.
Growth
We publish in disciplines that are experiencing immense growth in research, new knowledge, discoveries, and enrollments. We are committed
to maintaining a steady growth pattern by publishing the work of talented authors in these markets.
Innovation
AW & BC are innovators in both pedagogy
and technology. Our ongoing investment in technology means that
we are creating text and media products that lead students on
new paths to understanding.

our success. AW & BC offer one of
the largest and highly trained sales forces in college publishing.

experts, technology specialists, discipline marketing managers,
and publishing teams throughout the world. Given our size and
reach, AW & BC are able to reach
out and service your book to virtually all potential customers;
and the closer we get to our customers, the better our publishing
becomes.
Our commitment to our disciplines includes hosting International
Conference on Technology in Collegiate Mathematics, Strategies
for Success events, Experience
Math Workshops, and offering annual scholarships in math and
science.
