Elsevier has a long history in Europe. They are an Anglo-Dutch publisher who 
purchased W.B. Saunders back in 2001, I think. Saunders was mainly a medical 
publisher and owned Mosby as well. Saunders also owned Harcourt Education 
(formerly Harcourt and Harcourt Brace Janovich) who you may know publishes 
school textbooks. Before 2001, Elsevier was mainly in Europe with some business 
in Asia.
