About Karger

The family-owned publishing company was founded in 1890 in Berlin, when Samuel Karger decided to launch a publishing company devoted entirely to medicine and science, and the growing demand for specialized journals.

After relocating the company’s headquarters to Switzerland in the 1930s, Karger started to increasingly address an international audience. As a result of this process, English became the main language of publication.
