  • The first page should include the title, name(s), and affiliation(s) of author(s) and full contact addresses for correspondence (including e-mail).
  • The second page should include the title (but no author identification), an abstract of not more that 150 words, a list of up to 6 key words, and a word count.
  • Use either American or British spelling consistently within an article.
  • Manuscripts should normally be no more than 25 to 30 double-spaced pages (including references, notes, figures, and tables). Minimize the number of notes. 
  • Use endnotes rather than footnotes.
  • Tables and figures should be placed after the references, each on a separate page with an indication as to where in the text where they occur.
  • Figures, tables, and black-and-white photos must be submitted in .jpg, .gif, or Word documents. 
  • Please contact the editors to inquire about undertaking a review; unsolicited reviews will not be accepted. Reviews should be between 1,500 and 2,000 words. Guidelines are the same as for articles.
  • Only original work not previously published and not currently under review elsewhere will be considered.
  • Contributions should be in English and will be reviewed anonymously.
