Septenary Editions is a peer-review publishing house, committed to maintaining and expanding our catalogue to the the highest academic standards. All editions published from 2017 onwards will be reviewed by members of our editorial panel, and we will be working to re-issue our back catalogue over the course of the coming years to bring all our products in line.
