Description
Here is a handy reference that helps beginning scholars learn the best strategies for getting published. Publishing in Journals on the Family contains varied perspectives from scholars at different career stages and from editors of major publication outlets. This combined knowledge from experts on both ends of publishing is invaluable to writers wishing to learn the ins and outs of getting published. The book provides readers with important information necessary to help them systematically plan a productive scholarly career while avoiding common publication pitfalls. Publishing in Journals on the Family includes the results of two surveys. The first presents the responses of productive scholars in the early or middle stages of their careers to questions about their choices of publication outlets. In the second survey, journal editors share information about publication criteria and changes in the focus of social science publications, and give helpful hints to beginning authors. The book also contains articles by a number of senior scholars who discuss their academic publication histories, providing readers with real-life examples of successful publishing careers. A bibliography of sources for tips on writing and publishing concludes the volume. Although the voices in the book are varied, they are unified in their calling for careful scholarship, relevant research, and clear writing. Graduate students, professionals such as therapists, social workers, and consultants, and academicians including teachers and researchers will find this book extremely helpful in their publishing lives.
