Making a Purchase

Any Palgrave Macmillan title currently in print can be selected for purchase using our secure online ordering and payment system.

Ordering Inspection Copies

Many Palgrave Macmillan and WH Freeman titles are available on inspection to teaching staff. Only those items showing the 'Available on Inspection' banner (or the Inspection copy logo in the catalogue) can be ordered on this basis.

Please note that inspection copy requests are subject to authorisation. Requests to send inspection copies overseas are fulfilled entirely at the discretion of our local representatives or sales offices. Titles marked 'Available on Inspection' will be sent to teachers and lecturers who are considering adopting the text as a course book. If this adoption leads to 12 or more sales, the book may be retained free-of-charge. Please note that you cannot purchase and request an ICS copy of the same book, and you may only request one ICS copy of a book. If you have any queries please email lecturerservices@palgrave.com.

Ordering Review Copies

Review copies of recent books are available to bona fide review editors and reviewers from relevant and recognised publications. Copies will be sent entirely at the publisher's discretion to relevant and recognised publications. We will consider requests for older or higher priced titles, on the basis of the publication's merit and circulation. If you have any queries please email reviews@palgrave.com.
