Title: Up the publication road
First published: 1984
Description: For an academic, researcher or graduate student with little experience or success in scholarly publishing, this Guide explains in considerable detail how the system works. Based on discussions with journal editors, members of editorial boards, articles and books about scholarly writing and publishing, it also draws from the author’s experience as a manuscript reviewer and academic author. The principles underlying the publication of refereed journal articles are broadly similar in arts, humanities, engineering, technology, social sciences, education and the physical, biological and health sciences. This book does not cover preparation of conference papers or the transformation of a dissertation into a book. New material on digital publishing and the electronic management of manuscripts has been included for the third edition.
