In academia, the mantra "publish or perish" is more than a cliche.
In most humanities fields, securing tenure proves impossible
without at least one book under your belt. Yet despite the obvious
importance of academic publishing, the process remains an enigma to
most young scholars. In this helpful guide, a seasoned author
offers essential advice for novice academic writers seeking
publication. He explains why not all publications are equal, why
e-books are not as widely respected as printed books in the
academic world, how to schedule publications prior to tenure, how
to spot a publishable idea, how to approach the right publisher,
and a host of other useful tips that greatly increase one's chances
of publication. By outlining a step-by-step approach to publishing,
this indispensable manual removes much of the mystery surrounding
an essential component of an academic career.
