Not exactly publishers, but I normally hear from them around April time when they are offering big discounts or up to 20% on immediate orders. Great if you have any budget left!

Good stuff for all age groups. Some of the photocopiable masters seem pricey, but they have to stay in business to meet the needs of changing courses I guess.

Well it's good to know there are some about who don't seem to go for the Yin Yang machine. I looked ever so hard at their publication list but couldn't see a web address. It is all very focused material and my mailing was addressed to Dear Head of Philosophy! It's quite pricey, but there again it is photocopiable material. Even so when one can't send for samples or goods on approval it's quite a lot of money.
