While still drawing inspiration from the beautiful Somerset countryside around the famous city of Bath, the list is now strengthened by a London connection -- by new ideas and new resources. This will enable us to be more effective in publishing books which help to balance the changing energies available to mind, body and spirit.

Under the new imprint, Ashgrove Publishing, we hope to be at the interface where inspiration becomes practice through human endeavor. Our aim is to make books that are accessible and timely, well edited and produced and, above all, say something worth saying.

We hope that our reinvigorated association with Words Distributing Company will help us reach new audiences in the U.S. Please let us know what you think of our books; we're keen to have your opinions and we welcome your feedback.
