How Progressive Book Club Works




Super Introductory Offer - Instant Savings!

You won't find a deal like this at your local bookstore or online megabookstore! The value of becoming a Progressive Book Club member begins instantly with your introductory books.


Risk-Free Membership = Satisfaction Guaranteed

Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. If, for any reason, you are not pleased with your introductory books, return them within 14 days of receipt at our expense. Your membership will be canceled; you'll owe nothing. We will credit your credit card with the full amount of the introductory offer charges, including a refund of all shipping and processing charges associated with your introductory books.


Great deals continue as a PBC member

As a member, you can purchase the latest progressive books at competitive savings (most titles will be 10-30% off list prices), and with sales and specials throughout the year, you may save as much as 70-80% off list prices on select titles. All we ask is that you agree to buy just 4 more books at regular club prices (including shipping and processing charges and sales tax in NY & PA) within the next 2 years. You may cancel at any time after you fulfill your purchase commitment by notifying us via our website or by calling Progressive Book Club customer service.


Support a Progressive Organization With Your Book Purchases at PBC

Unlike other booksellers, PBC puts your purchases to work to support the environment, independent media, human rights, literacy and many other progressive causes. When you join PBC, you can select a beneficiary organization to support with via the books you buy as a PBC member. We will donate $2 from the purchase of each regular club-priced book ($10 or more) to that organization. You can also choose not to elect a beneficiary organization when you join PBC.


Stay current with a monthly selection of the latest and best progressive books

Once a month, the PBC editorial staff, in conjunction with PBC's Editorial Board of leading progressive thinkers, activists, and authors, will choose a PBC PICK and several new alternate book selections.
You'll receive an email notification of the PBC PICK at the beginning of each month. If you want to receive only the PBC PICK, do nothing and it will be sent to you automatically, or you can order the PBC PICK right away to receive it more quickly. If you do not want to receive the PBC PICK, simply reply by the specified date via our website; youll always have at least 3 weeks to decide. We will send you an email reminder regarding the PBC PICK before the specified reply-by date


Online Ease & Convenience

The entire club is online -- no catalogs clogging your mailbox, no cards to return. No matter where you are, it is easy to access and order from Progressive Book Club.


Join a Community of Like-Minded Readers

Progressive Book Club also gives you the opportunity not to just buy books, but to share your thoughts on the books, authors, and important issues with others. Build a profile on our site, participate in our discussion groups, join in on roundtables with PBC authors, and use our meet-up functionality to find other members in your area to get together to discuss books and most importantly, discover ways to take action!
