Rodale Press, headquartered in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, is one of the world's largest publishers of health-related books and magazines.
Rodale has published a number of hugely successful books, including The South Beach Diet, a best-seller and the first book published on the widely-popular South Beach diet.
Rodale also released another best-seller in Pete Rose's 2004 autobiography, My Prison Without Bars, in which the controversial all-time Major League Baseball hit leader first confessed to gambling on professional baseball while playing with the Cincinnati Reds. My Prison Without Bars is viewed widely as Rose's mea culpa attempt to reverse Major League Baseball's decision to ban him from the game and the Baseball Hall of Fame because of his gambling violations.
Rodale Press also publishes numerous internationally-distributed health-oriented magazines, including Prevention, Men's Health and Runner's World magazines.
In addition to its Emmaus headquarters, Rodale maintains an office on New York City's Third Avenue.
Founded in 1930, Rodale Press now employs roughly 1,100 people.
