Books Considered for Publication
Textbooks
Undergraduate and graduate textbooks that combine mathematical or scientific rigor with clear exposition, worked examples, exercises, and educational value.
Research Monographs
Focused scholarly works presenting original research, mature theory, or sustained treatment of an important research area.
Lecture Texts
Advanced course books, lecture notes developed into coherent scholarly texts, and books connecting foundational ideas with current research.
Interdisciplinary Books
Books connecting mathematics with statistics, engineering, technology, computer science, data science, artificial intelligence, education, and related fields.
Editorial and Peer-Review Standards
Every book proposal is first evaluated for scope, academic suitability, intended readership, originality of contribution, and overall readiness. Manuscripts selected for further consideration are assigned to an appropriate handling editor and are normally sent to qualified external reviewers with relevant subject expertise.
Independent Peer Review
Books intended for publication undergo independent academic review appropriate to their subject, level, and intended audience.
Editorial Independence
Editorial decisions are based on scholarly merit, educational value, reviewer reports, and the recommendations of independent editors.
Conflict of Interest
Authors who hold ISQGD leadership, editorial, or governance roles do not participate in the editorial evaluation or publication decision concerning their own manuscripts.
Quality before Quantity
ISQGD Books prioritizes mathematical and scholarly correctness, clarity, originality, integrity, educational usefulness, and long-term value.
ISQGD Books Editorial Board
The Editorial Board supports the scholarly standards and academic development of ISQGD Books. Its members bring expertise from mathematics, science, engineering, and related disciplines and contribute to the evaluation of book proposals and manuscripts, the identification of qualified reviewers, and the continued development of rigorous, independent, and transparent editorial and peer-review procedures.

Digital-First Publishing and Print Availability
ISQGD Books follows a digital-first publishing model designed to support efficient, affordable, and international dissemination of scholarly and educational works. Electronic editions provide a principal means of publication and global access, allowing books to reach students, educators, researchers, professionals, libraries, and institutions without requiring conventional inventory or large advance print runs.
Where a physical edition is appropriate or there is reader, library, or institutional demand, ISQGD Books may also make paperback or hardcover editions available through professional print-on-demand and distribution services. Physical copies can then be produced in response to orders and shipped directly to purchasers by the applicable printing or distribution provider. This approach helps avoid unnecessary inventory, storage, and fulfillment costs while preserving access to professionally produced print editions.
Electronic and print editions of a title are based on the same academically reviewed and approved work. Preparation of a print format does not duplicate the scholarly evaluation of the underlying manuscript; however, each format remains subject to appropriate production checks, bibliographic requirements, and quality control before release.
Availability of particular formats and distribution channels may vary by title. ISQGD Books selects formats and services according to the work, its readership, production requirements, accessibility goals, and sustainable publishing practices.
Pricing and Author Royalties
ISQGD Books seeks to maintain reasonable and internationally accessible pricing while offering authors a transparent and favorable publishing arrangement.
Under the standard ISQGD Books model, authors ordinarily receive 40% of Distributable Net Revenue from sales of their books, subject to the terms of the applicable publishing agreement. Distributable Net Revenue is the amount remaining after clearly defined and permitted publication, transaction, production, and distribution costs have been accounted for.
Book-specific one-time production costs are not intended to be deducted indefinitely. Once such approved costs have been fully recovered, they cease to be deducted from later sales. Detailed terms are set out in the formal author agreement for each title.
Questions About Publishing with ISQGD Books
Prospective authors naturally want to understand how a scholarly publisher evaluates, produces, identifies, distributes, and accounts for its books. ISQGD Books provides clear information about independent peer review, editorial independence, ISBNs and metadata, digital and print formats, distribution, copyright, author royalties, and the publication process.
ISQGD Books remains the publisher of works accepted through its editorial process. Established third-party platforms may be used for electronic delivery, retail distribution, print-on-demand, and fulfillment where appropriate; use of such services does not transfer the publisher role to the service provider.
Editorial, Publishing, and Ethical Policies
ISQGD Books maintains written policies covering editorial independence, peer review, conflicts of interest, publication ethics, author and reviewer responsibilities, copyright and permissions, pricing, royalties, production standards, bibliographic identifiers, distribution, corrections, and appeals.
