We welcome proposals for new, academic books that deal with topics pertaining to the Middle East and North Africa, or the Islamic world more widely, whether they are monographs, edited volumes or general interest (non-fiction) books. We are particularly interested in submissions from Middle Eastern scholars based in the MENA region. All academic publications will be subject to peer review and special priority will go to works falling under the following categories: interfaith; history and politics; art and architecture; gender studies.
