Worth Publishers
In 1966, Robert R. Worth and a group of colleagues established an educational publishing house with a unique philosophy: to create a series of books concentrating on only a few main subjects, with each book being of the highest quality and possessing substantial ancillary material.
Since 1998, Worth Publishers has concentrated on the development of social science textbooks focusing on psychology, economics and sociology. Worth’s worldwide bestsellers include Psychology – easily the most famous introductory book on the subject – and Exploring Psychology by David Myers, The Developing Person Through Childhood and Adolescence by Kathleen Berger and Macroeconomics by N. Gregory Mankiw. In 2003, Worth also successfully expanded into the market for high school textbooks with Thinking About Psychology by Charles T. Blair-Broeker and Randal M. Ernst.
