North Atlantic Books
North Atlantic Books is a non-profit, independent publisher based in Berkeley, CA. Founded by authors Richard Grossinger and Lindy Hough in Vermont, North Atlantic Books was named partly for the North Atlantic region where it began in 1974, as well as Alan Van Newkirk's Geographic Foundation of the North Atlantic, an early (1970) ecological center founded in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, by radicals from Detroit. The publisher also cites Edward Dorn's 1960's poem, "North Atlantic Turbine: A Theory of Truth," which very early described the dangers of global commoditization by the Western World, as an inspiration in the company's name. The company's mission statement reads: “Our mission is to affect planetary consciousness, nurture spiritual and ecological disciplines, disseminate ancient wisdom, and put forth ways to transmute cultural dissonance and violence into service.”〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Company Profile )〕 Genres published by North Atlantic Books include internal martial arts (through its imprint ''Blue Snake Books''), somatics, homeopathic medicine, shamanism, Martian mysteries, alternative medicine, the history and philosophy of medicine, natural foods, New Science, Buddhism, parapsychology, Western esotericism, Sufism, deep ecology, gay and lesbian studies, conspiracy theories and Jungian psychology. In 1980, North Atlantic Books was incorporated within the Society for the Study of Native Arts and Sciences, a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization. They are a client of Random House distribution services.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Contact Us )〕
==Io Magazine==
While Grossinger attended Amherst College and Hough at Smith College in Massachusetts, they founded North Atlantic Books progenitor Io Magazine,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Io Magazine )〕 an alternative college literary magazine in 1964, featuring work from Robert Kelly, Charles Stein, and Nels Richardson, among others. Over the next decade, Io became a counter-cultural journal mixing literature, science, and history, as it came out of Michigan, Maine, and Vermont with issues such as Alchemy, Doctrine of Signatures, Ethnoastronomy, Oecology, Dreams, Earth Geography, and The Olson-Melville Sourcebooks. Io is credited for publishing early works by Stephen King (his poem, "Brooklyn August," was featured in Io Issue #10〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Io Magazine #10: Baseball Issue w/ Brooklyn August (poem) by Stephen King )〕), Jayne Anne Phillips, poets Robert Duncan, Charles Olson, Ed Sanders, Diane di Prima, as well as the work of writers including David Wilk, Rob Brezsny, and Phoebe Gloeckner.
In 2009, North Atlantic books created the Io Poetry Series, featuring collections from under-recognized voices in American poetry. Featured poets include Gerrit Lansing, Kenneth Irby, Lindy Hough, and Lenore Kandel." In 2010, Kenneth Irby's Io Poetry Series book ''The Intent On'' received the Poetry Society of America's 2010 Shelley Memorial Award.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shelley Winners )〕 In 2012, North Atlantic Books published ''Collected Poems of Lenore Kandel'' which included several never-before-published poems by the Beat Generation writer and an introduction by poet Diane di Prima.〔 In 2013, it released ''Catching Light'', a collection featuring many never-before published poems by Joanna McClure and a foreword by Michael McClure.
