I am searching for a publisher to publish one of my books for free. Appreciated if anyone can make some suggestions. The book is on Urban Informality. (Apart from Lambert Academic publishing)
I remember reading some critics on Lambert academic publishing. You can simply google 'predatory publisher lambert' and find some critics. But I don't know you experience with them.
Sorry, but I did not remember in my answer that you don't like Lambert
Regarding comments on them , probably they are right.
I published only one book with Lambert and so far I don't have complains. However I recognize that its methods are not the best, for instance they publish your manuscript as you write it, that is, without a review from a style and grammatical editor.
The publisher that I can heartily recommend is Springer, from Germany, which published most of my books. The are very selective and severe, but their books are of the highest quality and prestige. They don't charge anything and also pay for the language editor.
I suggest that you contact them and sending a summary of your book for them to appraise the convenience of its publication
