Pacific Press Publishing Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pacific Press Publishing Association, or Pacific Press for short, is one of two major Seventh-day Adventist publishing houses in North America. It was founded in 1874 by James White in Oakland, California, and is now located in Nampa, Idaho. Its titles include theological works as well as books on topics such as vegetarianism and home schooling. It owns its own printing operation.
The company has been the subject of at least two complaints dealing with sex discrimination, although the Seventh-day Adventist Church has an official policy of non-discrimination.
