Our Company

In 2004, Dr. Claudia Frank and Dr. Karin Timme founded Frank & Timme in Berlin. Under Dr. Timme's long-standing management the publishing house became a well-established player in the Humanities and Social Sciences. In 2024, Frank & Timme was entrusted to the hands of Astrid Matthes and Oliver Renner, who now manage it. Since 2026, Weidler Buchverlag continues as an imprint of the Frank & Timme publishing house.

It is our mission to preserve knowledge and to put it at the service of as many as possible. Our name, Frank & Timme, stands for good books at a fair price. Authors as well as editors appreciate our high level of expertise and the well-tailored counsel we provide to them. Every manuscript is treated swiftly and with great diligence.

And once a book has been published, we really set to work! Thanks to our cooperation with national and international partners our Catalogue is globally available—in book stores as well as on the Internet. On top of that, our astute advertisement strategies guarantee a wide reception in the expert audience.

In our ever more complex world, the Humanities and Social Sciences are of unparalleled importance. This is our firm belief and the very reason why we build our Catalogue around them.

You can rely on us.
