Elsevier’s history is one of a series of collaborations in the effort to
advance science and health. The fruits of the collaboration between Elsevier
and the eclectic group of scientific visionaries that it has published —
ranging from Jules Verne to Stephen W. Hawking — created a foundation of
scientific and medical publishing. Equally important are the cumulative
efforts of the men and women who have dedicated their lives to disseminating
and using scientific and medical knowledge: the editors, the printers, the
librarians, the nurses, the doctors, the engineers, the information
specialists, and the business people who are at the heart of scientific and
health publishing.
Integral to Elsevier's success are a number of important relationships with
other great science publishers — North Holland,
Excerpta Medica, Pergamon, Mosby, W.B. Saunders, Churchill Livingstone
and academic Press, to name but a few of the companies that are now part of
the Elsevier family, bringing with them long and rich histories of their own.
As the company moves forward into the new millennium, its founding motto is
more apt than ever: Non Solus (not alone).
