1. Title page, including your name, affiliation(s),
and contact data (postal address, phone/fax, email). We
need this because, once the book comes, out the
publisher will send you a complimentary copy. Your
abstract should also appear here, no longer needing
keywords.
2. Biography page: something brief, like this:
Cathy Cooper (Ph.D., UCLA), who teaches in the Sociology
Department at Ohio State, is the author of Human
Trafficking Issues (Routledge, 2006), and is co-chair of
the Gender Division of the Popular Culture Association.
She is currently doing fieldwork in Peru.
3. The chapter itself, 20 pages maximum, with these
specifications: nothing should be in bold or capital
letters, but EVERYTHING should be double-spaced. Center
key sections, not underlined, but put sub-sections of
them to the left, underlined. Indent each paragraph five
spaces, but have NO spaces between paragraphs. Running
heads are not necessary, but number all pages beginning
with the first page. Just so we are all uniform, use
Times New Roman font size #12, and limit endnotes (not
footnotes) to one or 2, at the end. For the
Bibliography, try to keep this style sample:
Jones, S.
(2007). Community health issues, in CyberTimes. B. P.
Black, Ed., pp. 110-135. London: Sage.
Smith, R. (2001). Gendered and sport. New York: Praeger.
Taylor, M.A. and Tooty, B. (2007). Refugee trials. South
Africa Times,
10 (Winter): 1-3.
Submission size should be about 20 pages. We are limited
to 125,000 words in all, which means that if you don’t
cut the publisher will—or, delete your submission
completely. Because we have so many chapters, that means
no more than 5,000 words, all-inclusive.
Time-wise, it seems that most of you will be able to
submit your chapters, abstracts, and updated bios by
November, 2008.
Here’s to teamwork!
