  Dr Philip Meyler

  Philip Meyler is the Publishing Director for Engineering, Mathematical and Physical Sciences at Cambridge University Press, a position he has held since November 2006. The editorial team he manages is based in Cambridge and New York and publishes more than 250 new books each year. Spanning such disciplines as pure and applied mathematics, statistics, computer science, astronomy, theoretical physics, telecommunications, circuit design, fluid mechanics, and biomedical engineering, this area encompasses some of Cambridge’s longest established science publishing as well as the latest developments in modern technology. Cambridge’s list of authors in these fields is unparalleled, including many Nobel laureates and Fields Medalists, with a tradition that runs unbroken from Stephen Hawking back to Isaac Newton. 

  Philip has worked in the scientific publishing industry for 21 years. His career began as a physics editor with Cambridge University Press in England in 1992. For most of the period between 1995 and 2002 he lived in the United States, in New York, working there first for Cambridge University Press and latterly, as a senior editor, for John Wiley and Sons. 

  He rejoined Cambridge in 2002 as Publisher for Physical Sciences, and was appointed Editorial Director for Engineering in 2004, overseeing rapid growth in Cambridge’s applied science output. His team’s focus is to deliver the highest quality scholarship to readers in whatever format they require, whether print or electronic. A key part of this is building career-long relationships with customers, where students use Cambridge textbooks in their undergraduate and graduate courses, and then go on to use Cambridge material as researchers or as practitioners in industry. Aware of the accelerating convergence of book and journal content in the on-line environment, Philip’s team works closely with the Cambridge journals group. 

  Philip holds a bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of Manchester and a doctorate in physics from the University of Oxford. He was, from 1990 to 1992, Junior Dean of Trinity College, Oxford.
