Submissions

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

• The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
• The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
• Article submissions are about 7,500 words, and book reviews are about 800 words.
• An abstract of not more than 150 words must accompany each manuscript.
• Citation style is internally consistent. The journal will review submissions with any appropriate citation style. If accepted for publication, the author will then use Chicago Manual of Style as the citation style.
• General Style Guidelines: The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
• Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
