River Rapids
A shorter, faster publishing route from River Publishers

River Rapids are concise books between 50-120 pages on topics across the Applied Sciences.

Rapids are highly focused on active, cutting-edge research topics that don't appear in traditional monographs, while also providing more depth and analysis than typical journal articles. They are the ideal entry point to new areas while being more modular and accessible than typical print or digital handbooks and edited volumes.
