Princeton University Press is the publishing arm of Princeton University, established in 1905 to disseminate scholarly research and academic work. The press publishes books across multiple disciplines including philosophy, history, politics, economics, mathematics, physics, and the humanities, serving both academic and general educated audiences.
The organization operates as a nonprofit publisher committed to advancing knowledge and intellectual discourse.
