Continuum is an independent publishing house (one of the few left). Continuum thrives on the free expression of ideas, unaffected by the dictates of big business or corporate politics. We are delighted therefore to be a sponsor of the 2007 Battle of Ideas, which epitomises what we believe in as publishers. It is a source of great pleasure to us (but not a complete surprise) that so many of our authors are featuring in this year’s Battle of Ideas, as they have in the past - Frank Furedi, Anthony Grayling and Ted Honderich, among others.
