Imperial College Press (colloquially known as ICP) was formed in 1995 and is a partnership between Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine in London and World Scientific publishing.
This publishing house was notably awarded the rights, by The Nobel Foundation, Sweden, to publish The Nobel Prize: The First 100 years, edited by Agneta Wallin Levinovitz & Nils Ringertz and is one of their current bestsellers. Imperial College Press has published about 400 books and 8 journals to date,[1] including works by a number of leading academic authors such as the Nobel Prize winner Ahmed H. Zewail, Paul C. W.

Their publishing mission is to represent leading areas of teaching and research at Imperial College, notably: Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics, Finance & Management, Engineering, Environmental Science, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Medicine & Healthcare, and Physics.
In 2007, the offices of ICP hosted a speaking panel event entitled "A marriage made in heaven or hell? Do scientists and the media make good bedfellows?"[2]
