Description
Book SynopsisThis book is an indispensable guide to how to write articles, choose journals, and deal with revisions or rejection. It showcases parts of articles, discusses journal submission, outlines the resubmission process, and highlights systemic issues so that the reader is fully prepared for what lies ahead.
Trade Review'I really liked the first edition of this book, and like the second edition even better. Journal article rejections are painful for everyone, especially young scholars who must publish to get a job or tenure. Rather than learn who to publish with through trial and error, they can use this book as a guide. It is a useful guide for older scholars too!' Brad J. Bushman, Ohio State University
