Planetizen Press is the publishing division of our popular website. Publisher of the respected Guide to Graduate Urban Planning Programs, the mission of Planetizen Press is to provide innovative resources for students and professionals in the field.
Publications
The Planetizen Press catalog currently includes a variety of titles available at the Planetizen Store.
Submissions
Planetizen Press accepts manuscripts for consideration from authors and opinion leaders. We favor manuscripts that are near completion on the subjects Planetizen covers on a regular basis:
- Urban and regional planning and land use
- Transportation and transit
- Environmental issues
- Energy and infrastructure
- Historic preservation
- Landscape architecture
- Urban planning technology
- Planning-related humor
We are open to ideas ranging from extended academic papers to popular non-fiction, like The Tipping Point. Our goal is to encourage debate and spread knowledge of the concepts and goals of urban planning. However, we are primarily interested in near-finished manuscripts. We are not seeking to develop books with authors from scratch.
Planetizen works with authors to develop their content, arranges printing and publication, and manages e-commerce and distribution.
