The getAbstract International Book Award is a bilingual award for nonfiction business-focused books.

History

The getAbstract International Book Award has been presented annually since 2001 and is awarded to four authors (or co-authors) for their work in English or German.[1][2][3] The initial focus of the award was on books from the genres economics, politics, and society. Over the years, the focus has narrowed more specifically to business-relevant books.[4] The award intends to raise the visibility of "(...) titles that make a difference to how [people] think, work, and live.”[5]

Until 2020, the award ceremony took place at the Frankfurt Book Fair;[6][7] since the COVID-19 pandemic, the award has been presented virtually.

In 2021, the getAbstract International Book Award will include a total financial prize of EUR 20,000.[5]

Winners of the getAbstract International Book Award

The getAbstract International Book Award traditionally recognizes two books per language category. The awards are weighted equally, without rank or preference.[4]

In 2021, the winners will be announced in November.[5] Winners are selected from the longlists, which in 2021 include titles by Nobel Memorial Prize winner Daniel Kahneman et al., psychologist Jacinta M. Jiménez,[21] and 2019 winner Dan Pontefract.

Since 2020, getAbstract has invited readers to vote for their favorite book longlisted in the “Business Impact” category. The “Readers’ Choice” award (International & German) goes to the work with the most votes.[22]
