About
London Mathematical Society Lecture Notes, published by Cambridge University Press
The book series was founded in 1968 by the Society and Cambridge University Press. It has established itself as a valuable source of information for professional mathematicians and research workers in all areas of mathematics. Most of the volumes are short monographs giving an authoritative account of the present state of knowledge of a topic of current interest. The treatment may be informal but importance is attached to clear yet rigorous exposition. The series also accepts conference proceedings and similar collective works that meet its general objectives.
To date over 480 volumes have appeared.
LMS Member discount: LMS members are entitled to a 25% discount when purchasing volumes in the series. An online discount code is regularly communicated as part of the Society's monthly email update to members.
Writing a book
Proposals or manuscripts should be sent to the most appropriate Editor or Advisor. Any Editor will be delighted to give you further information and advice about their series; alternatively you may contact Roger Astley of Cambridge University Press for general guidance on which series may be the most suitable home for your book.
The Society aims to ensure that speedy decisions are made on all manuscripts and proposals offered. In general, a proposal should consist of an explanation of why the book is being written and for whom, some sample material, and a brief description of the background and expertise you can bring.
In addition to competitive royalty rates, the Series Publishers and Editors offer advice to authors throughout the whole process from writing to publication and ensure wide marketing. In addition, books are advertised through the Newsletter of the LMS.
