Contributory Volumes

Guidelines for editors

As the editor of the volume you are responsible for ensuring the manuscript is submitted correctly. You will need to decide how long each contribution should be, and how many figures each contribution should contain, so the book keeps within the limits set out in your contract. You must ensure that

• all chapters are submitted to you both as a hardcopy printout (single-sided and double spaced) and as electronic files
• the chapters are consistent in terms of style and layout
• any necessary permissions are obtained
• all electronic files, especially figures, are submitted in a suitable format

If there are any changes to the contributors you must make your Press Editor aware so we can send out any new or replacement contracts if necessary.

You must supply

• a hardcopy printout (single-sided and double spaced) and as electronic files
• all necessary permissions
• a list, in alphabetical order, of all contributors and their contact details
