Book Description: Academic publishing is tough. Early career researchers have little insight into how journals make rejection and publishing decisions. This book aims to offer such insights by compiling the observations of one journal editor over their eight-year tenure, covering issues such as how to interact with journals and how to avoid desk rejections. It also offers an opportunity to actively discuss specific topics. Such discussions, freely accessible to anyone, will help increase the collective understanding of how journals make editorial decisions and how authors can maximise their chances of getting published.
