Manipal Universal Press (MUP), the esteemed publication house of the Academy of Higher Education (MAHE), has joined hands with the renowned Taylor & Francis Group (T&F) for an exciting new partnership in the realm of academic publications.

Commenting on the partnership, Lt Gen (Dr) M D Venkatesh, the Vice Chancellor of MAHE said, “MUP has always been a hub of diverse academic works, spanning across fields from Medicine and Engineering to Management, Education, Humanities, and Social Sciences. We are excited to take this academic journey to the international stage, courtesy of our co-publishing collaboration with T&F. This is fantastic news for budding scholars and seasoned experts alike across India. In a ground-breaking start to this partnership, we are proud to announce the release of two outstanding books this month. Leading the pack is the internationally acclaimed National Research Professor M S Valiathan's major work "Ayurvedic Inheritance – A Reader’s Companion," which became globally available on August 7th through Routledge. Following suit is "Reimagining Border in Cross-border Education," a thought-provoking compilation edited by the brilliant minds of Neeta Inamdar, Professor and Head of Manipal Centre for European Studies (MCES), MAHE and Pranjali Kirloskar, formerly a faculty member at MCES. But that's just the beginning!”

MUP’s collaboration with T&F is already in full swing, bringing forth a host of captivating titles soon. Imagine diving into the world of "Early Buddhist Artisans and their Architectural Vocabulary" by the accomplished Late S Settar, a leading historian of India, or exploring "The Word in the World" with essays by H S Shiva Prakash, a well-known poet and playwright, edited by Kamalakar Bhat, Professor of English Literature. Other major works include "Multivalence of an Epic – Retellings of Ramayana in South India and South-east Asia," an enriching compilation edited by the Parul Pandya Dhar, Professor of History at Delhi University and well-published author.

This partnership between MUP and T&F is more than just a collaboration; it's an invitation to all corners of the globe to share in the wealth of knowledge these academic publications offer. It is not just expanding MUP’s horizons – but building bridges between ideas and cultures, nurturing the growth of academia worldwide. For MUP, this partnership marks a monumental step in its journey as a publishing powerhouse. MAHE is elated to contribute to the academic landscape and are eagerly anticipating the opportunity to bring many more books by authors from every nook and cranny of the diverse country.
