The books published should have an impact, they should be able to "help" in the meaning of giving the reader a perspective on different aspects of being human. The books should engage the reader. Arneberg Forlag will primarily issue non-fiction.Saying; the releases are going to revolve around the topic of "Mental Health", and written by professionals in humanities. The books should be professionally founded, but it is important that what we call intuitive knowledge also takes place. A long life lived in the quest of recognition and a deeper meaning with life will also be important to the publisher.
