Jeremy P. Tarcher Inc., founded by Jeremy P. Tarcher thirty-five years ago in Los Angeles, CA, is a book publisher and imprint of Penguin Group (USA) focused primarily on Mind/Body/Spirit titles. From its conception its focus was health, psychology, and philosophy, with a strong emphasis on the Human Potential movement, though over the years the company has expanded to include serious nonfiction books of all types. Putnam purchased the company in 1991, and the offices were moved to New York. Mr. Tarcher remained head of the company until early 1996, and Joel Fotinos was named Publisher later that year. [1]


Tarcher is one of the premier Mind/Body/Spirit publishers, and publishes some sixty titles annually, covering a broad spectrum of topics in the areas of wellness, self-improvement, spirituality, esoterica/occult, creativity, social consciousness, prosperity & abundance, and more. Recent bestsellers include 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, Ultramarathon Man, The Dumbest Generation, The Wonder of Boys, Energy Medicine, The Power of Kindness, and Think & Grow Rich.[2][3]


Tarcher publishes a number of successful authors, from bestselling classical leaders in the field of success literature such as Napoleon Hill, Wallace D. Wattles, Dale Carnegie and James Allen to contemporary leading authors in the field of Mind/Body/Spirit. Julia Cameron, David Lynch, Donna Eden, Betty Edwards, Piero Ferrucci, Daniel Pinchbeck, and Jacob Needleman have all recently been published by Tarcher.
