Publishing and the Academic World

Within the Academy, itself a changing and increasingly entrepreneurial entity, publishing is no longer an option; it is the universal currency that secures a position, tenure and promotion. Providing a panoramic picture of the changing publishing climate, Academic Life and the Publishing Landscape will empower scholars by enabling them to navigate this changing terrain more successfully. The book documents the challenges faced by scholars at different career stages and locations in the process of preparing manuscripts for publication through international outlets and for international audiences. This will be a useful guide for scholars looking to enhance their publication performance.
