Welcome to the Summer 2024 IBPA Bookstore Catalog!
To shine a spotlight on the excellence of books from independent publishers, we’ve opened this catalog with silver and gold winners from fifteen categories of the IBPA Book Awards™—a celebration of the best books published in 2023 by traditional trade and hybrid publishers, author publishers, as well as university presses, nonprofits, and associations. (The winners were announced at a gala ceremony April 26, 2024—after this catalog went to press.) We’re also including a collection of books our publisher members are excited to share with you.
Counting the $1,120 donation represented by the books in this catalog, in the past year participating members of the Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA) have donated a total of $6,240 to Benetech, a non-profit whose mission is to help make books and reading more accessible to all readers, particularly those with print disabilities.

With that in mind, please explore the titles featured in these pages. All together it’s over 120 fiction and nonfiction, children’s, tween, teen, and adult titles.

For personal happiness and survival of the species, everybody needs to go to a psychotherapist.
Bob Gebelein refutes all the Freudbashers with the simple fact that through psychotherapy and dream analysis he found happiness for himself and a way to prevent nuclear annihilation of our species.
“5 out of 5 stars... Just as students study Aristotle, Freud, and Carl Jung, they should also learn about Bob Gebelein’s theory on happiness and survival. Those who want to discover themselves should read this book as well.”
—Robert Andrew, OnlineBookClub.org
“I loved that the author was not trying to impose his ideas on others or give them solutions like psychologists or self-help books do. Instead, he leaves it to the reader to interpret the work and draw their conclusions. … The book is a must-read for everyone who has deep-seated questions about the state of our minds, spirituality, and society.”

“The strength of this volume lies not in its impressive scholarly underpinnings, but rather in the author’s humane, honest, and piercing writing style. . . Pettiway blends his astute understanding of criminal justice and sociological theory with Dharmic spirituality and a philosophical embrace of radical definitions of love, justice, and liberation. This formidable collection of essays offers a profound alternative vision for a more equitable future.”
