I came across this website by chance and I am pleased there is at last some effort at promoting the Introducing series of books, which has been seriously neglected in recent years.
However, the text on the website is terrible! Some of the statements are factually incorrect and there are numerous English mistakes in spelling, punctuation and grammar. The style of writing is juvenile and amateurish. This is a very bad advert for the Introducing books, which are all well written by professional writers.
Also, what is the point of putting random quotations on twitter without giving sources? Out of context, these quotations are meaningless and do not promote the books they come from. Importantly, you are infringing the Moral Rights obligations of Copyright laws and setting a bad example. You should always put the name of the author and the title of the book with each quotation.
Introducing is a series of brilliant graphic, comic-book style guides to the biggest ideas mankind has ever had. They're witty, enjoyable and concise - and authoritative.
This site focuses on the twelve titles now available in Introducing's brand-new, pocket-sized format. See below for links to read more about individual titles, to buy books via Amazon in the UK or the USA, to enter our monthly quiz.
If you've any suggestions for the site, please let us know.
Every month, read a full Introducing book electronically via this site. This month, it's Introducing Descartes by Dave Robinson and Chris Garratt.
Click on the cover below to flick through the book, and you can embed it, should you wish, on your website, blog, or social network page (eg Facebook), too.
