>Call for Contributors:
>
> The Reader's Guide to Social Sciences was commissioned in March 1998 as
>a two- volume reference book comprising 1,400 entries on key topics in
>the social sciences. We are now at the stage where the bulk of the book
>is in copy editing, and we urgently need contributors to write the last
>remaining entries listed below.
>
> Each 1,000 word entry is essentially a literature review. It should
>list the key 8-10 texts on a topic, and discuss the quality, emphasis,
>range and depth of coverage in each. Entries should concentrate on
>reviewing books, key journal articles, collections of articles in book
>form, and individual essays in collections.
>
> If you are interested in writing any of the unassigned entries, please
>contact Carol Jones, the project commissioning editor, at
>carol who-is-at fitzroydearborn.demon.co.uk. She will make the formal assignment,
>and provide you with a contributor guide that contains a sample entry.
>Entries will be assigned on a first-come first-served basis, and
>deadlines are negotiable but will necessarily be quite tight at this
>late stage in the project, at around 2 months from date of assignment.
>
> Contributors will receive either a fee or a free copy of the book on
>publication, and each entrant will have a bio-bibliographical paragraph
>in the Notes on Contributors section of the book, as well as their name
>at the foot of their section(s).
>
> I hope that you will be able to take part in what has been a
>well-received and exciting project so far.
