That's the name of the print-for-pay outfit that printed Aprim's book. They'll print anything, they don;t care. No checking of facts, no editorial board, nothing...just mail manuscript plus check and you too can be an "author"...of a "book". Does anyone think, for one minute, that Aprim wouldn't have preferred to have a real publisher pick up the tab and publish his book instead of a print shop? Of course he would...but that would never happen because anyone knowing even a little bit about history would laugh all over his manuscript...the guy merely lifts things out of context, lops off whatever won't "work"...stands it on its head if necessary...and is either ignorant of, or leaves out all the mountains of evidence which prove him wrong...on almost every single one of his "points" and "believes" (sic).

By contrast, here's what a search of the internet finds for Brill...Dr Joseph's publisher....

BRILL

Brill is an academic publishing house with a strong international focus. The main subject areas of Brill's publication programme are Ancient Near East & Egypt, Asian Studies, Biblical Studies & Religious Studies, Classic Studies, Medieval & Early Modern Studies, Middle East & Islamic Studies, Social Sciences and STM & Biology.

The vast majority of Brill's publications are published in the English language and include book series, individual monographs, encyclopaedias and some ninety journals. Increasingly, Brill's publications are also available electronically.

Brill's principal markets are Europe, North America and Japan.The majority of Brill's customers are academic institutions and libraries.

...This place has been publishing books, at THEIR expense, for 325 YEARS! On his first book Dr Joseph had a general editor plus three on the editorial board...one from a university in the Netherlands, one from London and one from France....Aprim has himself plus all the others who've written such "books"...who use each other's manuscripts as "referrences" and "sources".

...what a scam...trying to overhwlem people with these "books" and the "facts" in them...while shouting insults at Dr Joseph to impress the rest of their rabble.
