About This Publisher Prefix

No Starch Press publishes technical books on computing, security, and programming with a cult following among developers.

The publication number segment following the publisher prefix is 3 digits long, giving this publisher a theoretical capacity of up to 1,000 unique ISBNs within this prefix.

The ISBN system works by dividing the 9-digit body of an ISBN (after the EAN prefix) into three parts: registration group, registrant (publisher), and publication number. Shorter publisher prefixes indicate larger publishers who need more publication numbers; longer prefixes are assigned to smaller presses with fewer titles.
