Call for Authors: Encyclopedia of Cancer and Society, Second Edition
Greetings!
We are inviting academic and medical editorial contributors to the 2nd Edition of SAGE’s Encyclopedia of Cancer and Society. (1st Edition: 2008 Editors’ Choice Award, Booklist!). This updated three-volume reference includes over 700 signed articles covering issues that surround cancer and its effects on society far beyond the medical conditions themselves. Categories of topics include the Business of Cancer, Cancer Associations, Biographies, Treatments and Therapies, Alternative Treatments and Therapies, Causes of Cancer, Cancer Around the World, and more. Perhaps you may want to join us in creating another award winning encyclopedia!
Upon request, a list of available entry titles will be sent to you. Please send request to cancer@golsonmedia.com.
We are currently making assignments with a deadline of June 30, 2014.
Th is comprehensive project will be published by SAGE Reference in 2015 and will be marketed to academic and public libraries as a print and digital product available to students via the library’s electronic services. The General Editor, who will be reviewing each submission to the project, is Dr. Graham Colditz, Washington University in St. Louis, where he serves as associate director, Prevention & Control at the Siteman Cancer Center.
SAGE Publications offers an honorarium for contributors ranging from SAGE book credits for smaller contributions up to a free set of the printed encyclopedia for contributions totaling 10,000 words or more. Your name and affiliation will also appear in the byline of your entries in the final publication.
If you would like to contribute to building a truly outstanding reference with the Encyclopedia of Cancer and Society, Second Edition please send me your CV and I will send you the list of available entries with guidelines. If you are unable to participate, your recommendation of any colleagues who might be interested in the project would be greatly appreciated. Reply to cancer@golsonmedia.com
