Publishing Addiction Science is a comprehensive guide for addiction
scientists - especially novice researchers - facing the complex process
of publishing in scholarly journals. Written by an international group
of addiction science journal editors and their colleagues, Publishing
Addiction Science tackles such issues as choosing a journal, publishing
qualitative research, responding to reviewers' reports, becoming a reviewer
yourself, and appropriate responses to ethical issues common to addiction
science publishing.
Addiction science publishing has grown tremendously in the past thirty
years. There are now close to ninety journals in seventeen languages
that specialise in addiction science as part of their broader mission.
Despite these expanding opportunities, getting research published not
only begins with choosing a journal: the conscientious researcher also
faces a host of potential language, authorship, citation and ethical
issues.
International in its scope, and now in a thoroughly revised, expanded
and updated second edition, the book gives special attention to the
challenges for researchers from developing and non-English-speaking
countries. Publishing Addiction Science is co-sponsored by the
International Society
of Addiction Journal Editors, and the Society
for the Study of Addiction.
