Spoiler for About Cambridge:
Cambridge University Press dates from 1534 and is part of the University of Cambridge. We further the University's mission by disseminating knowledge in the pursuit of education, learning and research at the highest international levels of excellence.
Playing a leading role in today's global market place, we have over 50 offices around the globe, and we distribute our products to nearly every country in the world. We publish titles written by authors in over 100 different countries.
Spoiler for History of the Press:
The Cambridge story began in 1534 when Henry VIII granted us letters patent, allowing the Press to print 'all manner of books'.
Cambridge published its first book in 1584 making it the oldest publishing house in the world. Over the next four centuries the Press's reputation spread throughout Europe, based on excellence in scholarly publishing of academic texts, poetry, school books, prayer books and Bibles. Along the way Cambridge published ground-breaking works such as Newton's Principia Mathematica, Milton's Lycidas, Ernest Rutherford's Radio-activity, and Noam Chomsky's Language and Mind.
In the 20th century Cambridge extended that influence to become a global publisher. Today Cambridge has over 50 offices across the globe, employs almost 2,000 people, publishes over 45,000 titles by authors from over 100 countries, and is still growing, bringing thousands of subjects and millions of ideas to the world.
Spoiler for Community and Environment:
The Press fulfils its mission to serve communities of learners, educators and researchers, not only through its publishing output, but also through its people.
Press colleagues demonstrate their commitment to our purpose, not only through our publishing, but through a whole range of community engagement activities all over the world.
In 2012–2013, more than 400 Press colleagues gave over 1,700 hours of volunteering time to community projects, which helped to create more opportunities for young people, including partnering with schools, participating in reading schemes, running library workshops and giving careers talks.
We are committed to conducting our business responsibly in all of our local communities, so that our activities have minimal impact on the environment. This includes the life cycle of our products and services from where we source supplies and where we manufacture and sell our products or services.
