MD MAHBUBUR RAHMAN

Md Mahbubur Rahman writes reference books for people who make decisions under pressure.

He holds a Master of Social Science in Social Work and works as a civil servant in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He is not a clinician, and says so plainly inside every book — a decision he considers part of the work, not a disclaimer attached to it.

What he brings to a subject is organisation: taking material a field already agrees on and arranging it the way a working professional actually needs it, rather than the way a curriculum indexes it.

Every book is built from the standard-setting sources a profession recognises, and every source is listed inside so readers can verify anything themselves.

He treats corrections as part of publishing rather than an embarrassment. Readers who report an error get the corrected edition free. He would rather be accurate in version three than unchallenged in version one.

He publishes under M Rahman Creative.
