Maybe worth probing through your library.

Does anyone know anything about this publisher? I’ve already told Catherine that the open textbook initiatives I’ve dealt with don’t charge authors to publish books openly._______________________________________________

Hi Heather,
I hope this email finds you well. I periodically check to see if there are any good options for open access books for physical therapy (one of my library liaison areas). I ran across Intech (https://www.intechopen.com/) and am wondering if you know anything about it. I have done some checking, but would value your thoughts/experience if this is a publisher you are familiar with.
Thank you and have a good day!
