| AdminHistory | The British Psychological Society took over its own publishing function in 1979 prior to this it had been subcontracted to the Cambridge University Press and others. Although reports of policies and lectures, as well as offprints and monographs from its Journals (since 1914) had already been published its first substantive book was 'Models of Man' published in 1980 [which was based upon a Welsh branch conference]. A new series of books 'Psychology for Professional Groups' [PPG] was launched in 1981. As the readership for PPG was not psychologists and the Society had no experience in that section a joint marketing agreement was made with Macmillan to publish PPG under a joint BPS/Macmillan imprint. Joyce Collins was publishing manager 1983-2001 succeeding Michele Benjamin. |
