The International Academy of Science, Humanities, and Arts, IASHA e.V. Freiburg, Deutschland started in 2017 the Demetrios Project and we chose Demetrios of Phaleron, a student of Theophrastus and most probably of Aristotle, as the name patron of our project. Demetrios was instrumental in establishing the ancient Library of Alexandria, probably the largest and most significant library of the ancient world covering all aspects of Science, Humanities and the Arts in many different languages. It is our objective to open up JOSHA as a universally accessible, open access library to all languages and countries. JOSHA will focus initially on publishing and providing open-access to textbooks in any field of Science, Humanities and the Arts, to students and readers worldwide. The non-profit International Academy of Science, Humanities, and Arts (IASHA e.V.) in Freiburg, the publisher of JOSHA, and all its members will make a special effort to support this project. We encourage you also to support this important initiative by joining the philanthropic IASHA e.V. Association (https://iasha.org ) or making a donation to IASHA e.V.. Dr. Ahmad Al-Janadbah has a Ph.D. in Linguistics studies and works as Assistant Professor at Zayed University. He has already many publications about different topics all around Linguistics studies and teaching Arabic for non-native speakers.
