I write this as an author of a book.
I write this as an author of a book.
My book was originally published by a company in Birmingham UK. They went bust and without me knowing APress/Springer Nature got hold of the book and published it without my consent and without payment a single penny of royalties.
I only found out by accident many years after when I saw my book, which I assumed was no longer available, appear on the Amazon site.
I would warn future authors to be very aware that this company may well not pay your for your work.
I have spoken to them and at first they were co-operative and looked like they would pay back and future royalties. But the last few months have ignored all emails and no payment has ever been received.

for proper research
i use this service to find necessary materials to help me do a thoroguh research on different topics.
Whether it is some scientific deep field, or whether it is related to sociology...
Gosh, without it IDK how I WOULD PREPARE FOR MY EXAMS!
But apart from learning goals, it is overall useful to broaden knowledge..FOr example recentyl I found a source on astrophysics, and read about possible white pulsars, and somewhere in the 70-s the sound, actually frequency vibration was detected, though it was thought to be of alien nature, soon it was pointed it came from pulsar
Sale
Heard of them from my friend, he said the prices here are competitive and even cheap at some extent. Didn’t understand how the price can go lower than the market, but now it makes sense. They have big campaigns that are kinda regular and lets to save a lot of money from them. I ordered with big size recently, and glad the delivery didn’t take ages to come. They said the time, they delivered

Finding a new book
I easily managed a search with the different filters. I arrived at a suitable book in a reasonable amount of time. From the book's webpage, I gained enough details. I had little trouble with selecting the right book.
Emails had helpful information which was easy to understand. I had no trouble with the website or the order. Overall experience was excellent and comparable to other publishers.
They're running a sort of Sham
They're running a sort of Sham, dishonest, lies-based, manipulative, unprofessional scheme
=== Nature's Scientific reports ===
Here, I'll try to summarize this farce (screens attached)
*At first they lure you by saying congrats, you've passed the review stage now and you need to edit the paper as requested
*Then they keep wasting your time by asking for dozens of pretty much meaningless from edits
*They say they're "multidisciplinary" while they're not, they don't have enough or probably any engineering reviewers
*This go on and on for months
*ONE YEAR later, they say they've invited a reviewer
* More than one year later I inquired about the paper
* Less than 2 days later the engineering paper got trashed by an earth science woman who's got nothing to do with the field.
The paper progress history is too long it needed a short video: youtube dot com/watch?v=_oRXux2iuPw

The issue of locating the right source…
The issue of locating the right source of information that can be called true academic and credible, is quite a challenging task to complete, especially when you`re a university student and know only one way of looking for info, googling it. This service was quite expensive, but since I had access from my institution, I tried it a couple of times and there are benefits for real, like a well-built searching engine and good collection of financial articles on research. But, pay this money for access, I think it`s not good for those, who aren`t granted with access from their study places.
Worst publishing experience ever
The experience of publishing with Palgrave has been laughably bad. They failed to keep my records up to date in multiple way, including my email address (leading to multiple key messages being sent to the wrong email address), my address (leading to complimentary copies being sent to the wrong address), and (embarrassingly) the repeated wrong listing of my university affiliation.
Even more problematically, the publishers somehow managed to leave the whole concluding chapter (yes a whole chapter) out of the proofs (despite this chapter being listed in the contents page.
The proofing was consistently poor, resulting in significant errors in the text.
It has been a ridiculous and embarrassing process to be part of. Never publish with Palgrave.

Excellent experience
It should be also part of my second purchase from springer, but I ended up splitting the order by mistake. As I said before, I had a very good experience buying from Springer. The book arrived in excellent conditions, much better than other publishers that I bought books from before. Also, I did not have to pay shipping nor taxes, and this made me very happy. I got a discount on the hardback, and I am very happy with my purchase.
Bad delivery experience
I had a very bad experience. I ordered a book on Dec.12, and today, Jan. 7, I haven't received it. I needed this book to prepare for the course I will teach next week. This is really frustrating. Canpar Courier is a bad choice for Springer. I tried to call their customer support or chat online to ask about the delay, but I got no response.
(Update) The book was delivered on Jan. 7 in the evening; however, they left it in front of the wrong suit!! It took me another day to reach out to my neighbors and get it.

Yesterday wannabe
Amazing in 2024 there is not a page gathering all of our orders to track them ! It may be the only website I know that is not able to provide this today - Science Leader ? Joke or caricature ?
(Some) good (but not all, very unequal) content. Very very pricey stuff. Overtrapped in bureaucraty and i-know-everything mindset.
Falling germany there.
Straight up !

Nature provides great journals with good access
Works as expected
Ordering and payment were easy
Ordering and payment were easy, book arrived before the original delivery date. Two small negatives: a longer sample would have been useful to decide on purchasing, and the price was quite high. But in terms of efficiently delivering what was advertised it gets five stars.
The book I ordered came fast
I can’t apply 10% discount for my next…
