This entry is a Wikipedia article about the publisher Inner Traditions Bear and Company, not a scholarly study of it. Wikipedia's own method is crowd editing under a citation requirement, with anyone able to add or revise text so long as it traces to a published source, which makes it useful for orienting facts, founding dates, imprint history, catalog scope, but weak as authority for any claim needing precision or attribution to a named expert. The article itself functions here as a tertiary pointer to a publisher's identity and standing in the esoteric and alternative spirituality book trade, not as an argument about the value of any book that publisher has released. Facts drawn from it about the press's history and scope are reasonably reliable; facts about the reception of any single title it publishes need a source closer to that title.
