About Us
New Word City is an entirely new kind of publisher -- producing concise, original writings on business topics exclusively in digital form.
After long days in meetings or on the road, it’s hard to curl up with the latest business thinkers musings when his or her book is a tome-sized 300-page-plus pages. Businesspeople often complain that the way to read the average business book is to skim the first two chapters, plus the last, and then leave the thing in your hotel room. Business readers need a new form -- clear, concise, portable, and eminently ready to work. We believe that form is digital. We believe in intelligence on demand.
