The 2011 PROSE Awards winners were announced February 2, 2012 at the PROSE Awards Luncheon in Washington, DC. Click here for a complete list of 2011 PROSE winners.

The PROSE Awards annually recognize the very best in professional and scholarly publishing by bringing attention to distinguished books, journals, and electronic content in over 40 categories. Judged by peer publishers, librarians, and medical professionals since 1976, the PROSE Awards are extraordinary for their breadth and depth.

Each year, publishers and authors are recognized at the PSP Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., for their commitment to pioneering works of research and for contributing to the conception, production, and design of landmark works in their fields. The R. R. Hawkins Award, presented to the most outstanding work among the publications selected, has been given to more than 30 works since its inception. Indeed, winners represent a broad range of disciplines: they have included Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy (Elsevier), The Race Between Education and Technology (Harvard University Press), Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews (WIREs) (John Wiley & Sons) and Atlas of the Transatlantic Slave Trade (Yale University Press).
