Commentary about the quality of UP books

It isn't a mystery: quality-conscious authors and publishers deserve more attention than those who flood the market with marginal material. Because UP is more selective than other Print-on-Demand book publishing companies, many of our books and authors enjoy major media coverage and public exposure, as shown below:

  • "Great idea that pans out!"
    -- Larry King on Navigating Hollywood's Ground Floor, co-published by UP and Universal Studios Hollywood

  • "I've already started to read it, and am enjoying it immensely."
    -- Ronald Reagan on Let the Tail Go with the Hide by Teresa Williams Irvin, with an introduction by Tom Lea, author of The Brave Bulls and The Wonderful Country

  • "...Well worth reading to get a better insight into the France that was, what she may become and why."
    -- Publishers Weekly (October 2012) on An American Spectator in Paris by Joseph Harriss

  • "From a psychological standpoint, there is merit to having a separate account for entirely discretionary or luxury spending," said Steve Levinson, a psychologist and co-author of Following Through: A Revolutionary New Model for Finishing Whatever You Start."
    -- The New York Times, 12/31/2010

  • "Eloquent and persuasive."
    -- The New York Times on The Heroin Solution by Arnold S. Trebach

  • "Is making money in the markets luck, or skill? Engineer Stan Mazor thinks it's a bit of both."
    -- Popular radio personality Lisa Napoli of the nationally syndicated MarketPlace program, 12/7/2007, on Stock Market Gambling by Stanley Mazor

  • "Kendrick, who co-wrote Take Out Your Nose Ring, Honey, We're Going to Grandma's (Unlimited Publishing) said there are lessons to be learned from the Lohan affair even when it comes to non-celebrity kids."
    -- Fran Golden for The Associated Press, July 2007, on Take Out Your Nose Ring, Honey, We're Going to Grandma's!

  • "Written with wit and charm..."
    -- The Los Angeles Times on The Tallest Tower by Joseph Harriss

  • "Testimonials abound from those who made the steps up, up and away from the Universal tour."
    -- VARIETY's senior columnist Army Archerd on Navigating Hollywood's Ground Floor, co-published by UP and Universal Studios Hollywood

  • "Stanley Mazor is one of the architects of the information age... So it was not surprising that when Mr. Mazor turned his hand to building a vacation house, his approach would be inventive... He chronicled the project in 2003, in a book, 'Design an Expandable House for Present Needs and Future Dreams' (Unlimited Publishing)."
    -- The New York Times, 2/17/2005 on Design an Expandable House by Stanley Mazor

  • "When family therapist Carleton Kendrick speaks at parenting seminars, he often uses this anecdote to describe teenagers' attitude..." -- USA Today on Carleton Kendrick, co-author of Take Out Your Nose Ring, Honey, We're Going to Grandma's!

  • "...the book really should bear a subtitle like 'Zen and the Art of Piano Tuning,' because...tuning a string to a pitch is more than just tightening a corset. It is a metaphysical act."
    -- Edward Rothstein, music critic of The New Republic, as quoted in The New York Times on The Seventh Dragon by Anita T. Sullivan

  • "...a delightful illustrated social history of the tower...
    -- Scientific American on The Tallest Tower by Joseph Harriss

  • " 'There's no room for pain and humiliation and fear in disciplining healthy children,' Kendrick said."

  • "Teaching kids personal safety without unnecessarily frightening them is a delicate, yet vital matter that all parents must undertake."
    -- Gary Locke (D-Washington) on Child Safety 101 by Benny Mares

  • "A piano is full of suppressed desires, recalcitrance, inhibition, conflict."
    -- Simpson's Contemporary Quotations on The Seventh Dragon by Anita T. Sullivan

  • "Harriss succeeds admirably... This is a well-organized, exceptionally readable book; entertaining, informative, and highly recommended."
