Hyde Park, NY – Ѹ announces its own publishing imprint: Ѹ Press. Books published under the Ѹ
Press imprint will be in an interactive digital format with built-in learning
objectives, embedded video, and other tools to reinforce essential points. The
first book, just released this week, is the second edition of The Art of Charcuterie by Ѹ Professor John Kowalski.
“With continued advances in technology, we are able to
create a much more dynamic learning experience,” said Ѹ Provost Mark Erickson. “This digital
publishing imprint lets people engage with content in a way that they can’t
with a hardcopy book—it allows the individual to decide what way is best for
them to learn.”
Books from Ѹ Press will appeal to both professionals and
the growing community of advanced home cooks and food enthusiasts. For
instance, The Art of Charcuterie will
be used in an educational setting at the Ѹ and is just as valuable to the
individual who makes home-cured sausages, smoked meats, and pâtés.
The college plans to e-publish updated versions of many of
its flagship titles under the Ѹ Press imprint. The Ѹ has been writing and
publishing books since the first edition of The
Professional Chef in 1962—co-published with Institutions magazine.
The Art of Charcuterie is now available on for $47.
