Unlimited Publishing (UP):
"Move UP to the professional POD book publisher!"

UP applauds Lulu's 'no-cost-to-the-author' system for self-publishing. For authors who prefer to work with a publisher, UP uses Lulu's state-of-the-art technologies to publish top quality "print on demand" (POD) books, a substantial cut above typical POD book publishing fare. For qualified books, authors pay no fees of any kind, and receive generous royalties. In exceptional cases, modest advances may be considered.

UP has multiple printing and distribution outlets with the largest suppliers in the mainstream book publishing industry, and thousands of contacts with U.S. newspapers, magazines, radio and TV stations. As a result, many UP books receive major media coverage, solid critical review from literary and professional journals, and award nominations. Please see UP NEWS for documented reports. Our goal is to combine the best of both worlds: the speed and economy of POD, with the high standards of a mainstream book publisher.

Below are examples of UP's unique hybrid of high tech book production and distribution methods, combined with proven professional publishing practices. Please check back periodically to preview other UP books, which are featured on a rotating basis.

The Great Drug War (Royal Edition)
Special "Royal" Size Edition: Widely praised as a controversial but thoughtful alternative to drug control policies of its time, the first edition of The Great Drug War was released in 1987 by Macmillan Publishing. Nearly 20 years later, it is clear that the drug interdiction policies of the 'eighties and 'nineties failed, and that Trebach's alternative proposals deserve a new look from today's perspective. The 2005 edition can re-open a long-overdue dialogue between educators, policy makers and health professionals about the reasons why America still faces a drug crisis. It includes a new introduction covering more recent developments in the use of medical marijuana, the relationship between drug trafficking and terrorism, and other fresh new material. This "Royal" size edition is not available in bookstores, or from other online booksellers.

He is also the author of The Great Drug War (Macmillan 1986, Unlimited Publishing LLC 2005) and The Heroin Solution (Yale University Press 1987, Unlimited Publishing LLC 2006). His books have been widely praised by major media, including The New York Times, Psychology Today, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly and more. This special edition is NOT available from bookstores!
