About the Press
History of the Press
Templeton Foundation Press was founded in January 1997 as a program of Templeton Foundation, Inc., a nonprofit foundation established by Sir John Templeton.
In the ten years since its inception, the Press has published more than one hundred books on topics including altruism, business and spirituality, character development, church history, forgiveness, inspirational virtues, psychology, public policy, science and religion, and spirituality and health. Most of these books have been converted into e-book formats, and we now offer several titles as audio books. Additionally, thirty-eight of our titles are available in as many as fifteen different languages and forty-nine of our books have been used by professors for use in their university courses.
The impact of the Press is measured not only in the success of our books, but also in the additional programs we offer. The Press manages several programs that promote the expansion of spiritual information, including:
These projects have given us the opportunity to expand the ways in which we fulfill our mission as well as explore the many growing areas of technology in the publishing field.
Mission Statement
The purpose of the Press is to promote and encourage progress in new spiritual information and research, provide analysis of the relationship between science and religion, support the application of the scientific method to spiritual concepts, and encourage character development and the enhancement of individual freedom. This is accomplished through the development, acquisition, and publishing of books, videos, and other publications that will ultimately result in distribution of the materials to individuals and institutions through domestic and international sales, distribution, and translations.
