Martinus Nijhoff Publishers (MNP) was an independent publishing company dating back to the nineteenth century, and is now an imprint of Brill Publishers.
The company was founded in 1853 by Martinus Nijhoff, grandfather of the Dutch poet with the same name and a seller of rare books. In the 1970 and 80s it became well-known as an independent international law publisher. It was then acquired by Wolters Kluwer.
Nijhoff's portfolio focuses on areas in Public International Law, Human Rights, on Humanitarian Law and increasingly on International Relations. Its annual publication program consists of over 20 journals, 20 annuals and some 120 new book titles. Its back-list comprises over 2,000 titles.
Famous quotes containing the word publishers:
“Do they [the publishers of Murphy] not understand that if the book is slightly obscure it is because it is a compression and that to compress it further can only make it more obscure?”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
