IPOC Press is a new Italian publisher whose goal is to promote the work of important Italian writers, not just in Italy but internationally.  We believe that Italian culture is positioned to play an important part in constructing new ways of seeing the world, in increasing awareness of the problems we face as fellow inhabitants of the planet. If Italian culture can be said to 'stand on the shoulders of giants', it is because our culture arises from the story of humankind itself, from the history of ancient thought. As those contributions continue to evolve today, influenced by the cultures of the entire world, our vision can only expand. IPOC Press' authors, within their respective disciplines, pose a threat to existing paradigms - choosing, dissecting, judging - in order to propose new values for our lives as individuals and as members of society. As our logo symbolizes, our destination is neither predetermined nor always definable, but what it takes to get there is clear: genuine creativity and an open mind bring us closer to a just and ethical world.
