Peer Review and Manuscript Management in Scientific Journals (PDF)

This comprehensive yet concise book provides a thorough and
complete guide to every aspect of managing the peer review process
for scientific journals. Until now, little information has been
readily available on how this important facet of the journal
publishing process should be conducted properly. Peer Review and
Manuscript Management in Scientific Journals fills this gap and
provides clear guidance on all aspects of peer review, from
manuscript submission to final decision.

Peer Review and Manuscript Management in Scientific
Journals is an essential reference for science journal editors,
editorial office staff and publishers. It is an invaluable handbook
for the set-up of new Editorial Offices, as well as a useful
reference for well-established journals which may need guidance on
a particular situation, or may want to review their current
practices. Although intended primarily for journals in science,
much of its content will be relevant to other scholarly areas.



?This wonderful work by Dr. Hames can be used as a textbook in
courses for both experienced and novice editors, and I trust that
it is what Dr. Hames intended when she prepared this beautiful
book. Every scientific editor should read it.? Journal of
Educational Evaluation for Health Professionals, 2008
