SPB Academic Publishing

SPB Academic Publishing bv was founded in 1986 by Simon Peter Bakker (at the time already working with Simon Kugler at Kugler Publications), with publications encompassing the natural/life sciences. In 1995 SPB was acquired by the Dutch company Royal Vermande in 1995. In 1997, Royal Vermande sold the (complete) stock of all titles to Backhuys Publishers. However, one year later Simon Peter Bakker was able to re-acquire the ’empty’ company and the imprint Kugler Publications.

Here, at SPB Academic Publishing we believe that, although we are a small company, we can play an important role in scientific publishing: we outshine larger companies in efficiency and flexibility, produce at lower prices, and can undertake projects that are too small for other, larger publishers. We aim at quality, prompted by its respect for the scientists who write and read.
