Max Scott: Following a masters in Arabic and Middle East Studies, Max travelled extensively working on behalf of some of the major US publishing houses such as McGraw-Hill and Prentice Hall, before taking over at Stacey International to build a list of illustrated and reference titles related largely to the Arab World. The Middle East remains an important theme at Gilgamesh Publishing – the continued political turbulence in the Arab World provides a requirement for commentary and analysis that will need to be addressed by the publishing world. max@gilgamesh-publishing.co.uk tel: 0044-7753745252 Graham Edwards: Graham trained in Graphic Design and has extensive experience in the world of book design. His work at Stacey International, where he was the driving force behind the uncompromisingly high standards, earned acclaim from overseas co-edition partners and mainstream book reviewers alike. Examples from his extensive portfolio might be Green China (a celebration of wildlife in China through the lens of Heather Angel, former President of the Royal Photographic Society) or Survival (striking images of endangered species as charted by Stanley Johnson in his work within the United Nations Environment Programme, UNEP). Charles Powell: Having worked undaunted on the editorial requirements of major reference works such as The Concise Encyclopaedia of Islam, Charles has established a strong reputation among colleagues and the authors with whom he has worked as someone who will get the job done on time but without compromise to quality. At Gilgamesh Charlie looks after the same editorial management production processes, with input on the editorial direction for the new list. |
