RUNNING AMOK belongs to this category. An important read in understanding what drives the lone mass killer to perpetrate their crimes, it is authored by forensic psychiatrist Paul E. Mullen, who is a world authority on the subject.

Traditional publishing has often put books into neat boxes.
At EB, we’re going beyond the boundaries of genre. We’re blurring them, too. We’re interested in books of all kinds, regardless of where — and whether — they fit in the current publishing ecosystem.

At Extraordinary Books, we believe there’s a different way to do publishing.

Meet Mitch, Publisher at Extraordinary Books.
He can rightly be called an industry "veteran", having worked as an editor, editorial director, publisher or consultant for, er, let’s say twenty years. He’s addicted to London, but his better half and their crazy dog are wooing him to the sticks.
