Timas
This is a journey of Timaş, which is one of the leading companies of Turkish publication business with its variety of books over 1600 and is located in Istanbul...
We had taken our first steps thinking “We light up the road; the reader will find his way anyway”. Two principles have been indispensable for us since the first day of our liable publishing philosophy: Serving to a pluralist intellectual world and not damaging the both humane and ethical values.
While developing a cultural common ground for our country’s journalists, academics and intellectuals, we have also endeavored to keep in touch with our reader profile’s needs and expectations. This approach has paved the way for all kinds of books for people from all age ranges under the titles of Literature, History and Culture, Reflections, Popular Politics, Family Books, For Teenagers, For Kids, Achievement Books and Faith and Prayer Books.
We never limit our publishing philosophy with local perspectives. Timaş also offers many foreign works, which share local and global values, to Turkish readers.
