Reader ReviewsPut away you preconceptions. This book in about ACTUALLY getting one's articles published. All too often, scholars, 'experts' and the those with more than a surface knowledge of their subject make a fatal assumption. Because one know's one's niche better than anyone else, because one has done extensive research or made an importasnt discovery does NOT mean one knows how to get that article published. Some 'minor' aspects are of prime importance when it comes to getting your work published. Some major facets of one's writings may not be as important as one thinks - at least in the publication aspect.
