The White Horse Press is committed to reducing and removing barriers<\/strong> to access for the material we publish. After all, the best, latest thought on environment and society is relevant to, literally, everyone<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the move towards Open Access accelerating across the scholarly publishing industry, we’re seeing more opportunities<\/strong> than ever before to break through the financial constraints that have traditionally limited readership for our books and journals. We are making considerable progress towards a fully Open Access future<\/strong>. The momentum we’ve built so far has only been made possible through the support of a range of institutions and partners, whose support we gratefully acknowledge.
