About Us
ISRA Books is a small, independent publishing house based in London, England.
The company specialises in publishing the literature of the East. The religious thought and the poetry of this part of the world have been a considerable influence way beyond the lands of their origin and are an important part of world culture. In publishing these works in careful and accurate translation, we hope to make them available to an English-speaking public and to play a part in preserving them for the enjoyment and illumination of the generations that follow us.
ISRA Books also believes in ethical book publishing. Paper is core to a publisher’s business as is the cost of production. ISRA Books believe less about profit than ensuring we are an ethical business. We continue to work with our suppliers to improve the environmental credentials of our books. Customers might expect to pay a little bit more for a quality hand bound product and ethically sourced book. Please see www.prepsgroup.com and www.fsc.org for more information.
