MANUSCRIPT SELECTION PROCESS:
The manuscript selection process includes a preliminary review by the Managing Editors, possibly a secondary review by one or more members of our Editorial Board, then a final editorial decision by the entire Editorial Board at their biennial meeting. Every submission is reviewed.
Due to the volume of submissions it is not possible to give a personal response to each individual who sends us her or his work. If your submission proposal is selected to continue through the process of review, you will receive notification in 4-6 weeks within receipt of the proposal.
If you do not receive notification from us within 8 weeks of your submission, please understand that your manuscript or proposal was not a good fit with our scope and mission. The decision to publish may rest upon factors other than the quality of your manuscript or proposal. Factors such as volume of submissions, capacity of our program, and our publishing directions may be at work.
