Book Reviews
Books eligible for review
Ordinarily, books to be reviewed will not be assigned; however, members wishing to review a particular book should make their interest known to the book review editor, in order to preclude irrelevancy or duplication. Suggestions for specific book reviews and/or particular reviewers will be welcomed. Book reviews should be completed in a timely manner.
Suggested construction of book reviews
Book reviews may range from 250-750 words. It is more important, however, to write a clear review, containing sufficient information for potential readers, than to adhere to a particular word count. The purpose of a book review is to stimulate and engage the potential reader, not to act as a substitute for reading the book (!)
Process for submission of material
Submit reviews via email attachment to Alan Lippman, MD, the book review editor, at ajlippman@aol.com .
Book reviews submitted for consideration of publication will be reviewed by the book review editor and by other members who may be consulted for advice and assistance. Reviews deemed worthy of publication will be posted in a timely fashion. Those determined to be not suitable will be returned to the writer.
Opinions expressed by writers of reviews are solely those of their authors and do not represent the opinion of the MHSNJ at large.
