San Diego, CA – August 1, 2014 – Founded in August 2004 by Sadanand and Angie Singh, Plural Publishing, Inc. marks its ten year anniversary this month. Independently owned, Plural publishes academic and clinical/professional books and multimedia products primarily in the fields of communication sciences and disorders, speech-language pathology, audiology, and otolaryngology-head and neck surgery, and will have published 460 titles by the end of 2014.
The company publishes 45-60 titles a year across a wide range of formats, including textbooks, workbooks, handbooks, medical atlases, training manuals, pocket guides, exam study guides, reference books, as well as DVDs and web-based products. Since its inception, Plural has published a number of books that have become standards in their respective fields such as Dwight’s Here’s How to do Therapy, Jacobson & Shephard’s Balance Function Assessment and Management, and Pasha’s Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery: Clinical Reference Guide.
Plural is the Singh’s third publishing venture dedicated to the fields of communication sciences and disorders and related allied health and medical disciplines. Previous imprints include College-Hill Press (1980-86) and Singular Publishing Group (1990-97). “It is our mission as a company that every communication disorders, speech-language pathology and audiology student has studied from a Plural textbook, and that practicing SLPs, audiologists, and ENT physicians have improved their clinical skills with information found in a Plural reference,” says CEO and President Angie Singh.
In addition to its robust publishing program, Plural also supports the growth of the professions it serves and has established the Plural Publishing Research Scholarship Awards in Honor of Dr. Sadanand Singh (1934-2010) who was a well-known professor in speech-language pathology. The scholarships are given out annually to two recipients at the masters and doctoral levels by the Council of Academic Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders (CAPCSD). Plural also provides underwriting support for five Student Research Forum awards granted by the American Academy of Audiology AAA Foundation and given out annually at the Academy’s conference.
