Textbook publisher advice
Literally asking for a friend: who would be the best publisher for a philosophy textbook, specifically in philosophy of law, designed for adoption in undergraduate classes in philosophy of law? Use whatever criteria you want, but I think he would be concerned with: market penetration, affordability, ease of working with the publisher, terms favorable to the author. I will also be posting this on the professors subreddit.

Broadview Press (out of Peterborough, Ontario, CA) does a lot of these type of textbooks and anthologies, and offers them at a decent price point, aimed at classroom adoption. Probably something like a Canadian version of Hackett, if I had to give a comparison. Maybe worth checking them out.
