RGS-IBG Book Series

ISSN: Print: 2996-5233 ¦ Online: 2996-5241

The RGS-IBG Book Series is a publishing partnership between the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) and LSE Press.

The Series publishes work of the highest international standing. Its emphasis is on distinctive new developments in human and physical geography, although it is also open to contributions from cognate disciplines whose interests overlap with those of geographers. The Series places strong emphasis on theoretically informed and empirically strong texts. Reflecting the vibrant and diverse theoretical and empirical agendas that characterise the contemporary discipline, contributions are expected to inform, challenge and stimulate the reader. Overall, the RGS-IBG Book Series seeks to promote scholarly publications that leave an intellectual mark and change the way readers think about particular issues, methods or theories.

The Series moved to LSE Press in 2024, and now publishes fully open access. Earlier titles in the series were published by Wiley. You can find a catalogue of them here.

All proposals and manuscripts are subject to external peer review, in addition to input from the editors and an experienced editorial board.
