> The Reader's Guide to Social Sciences was commissioned in March 1998 as
> a two- volume reference book comprising 1,400 entries on key topics in
> the social sciences. We are now at the stage where the bulk of the book
> is in copy editing, and we urgently need contributors to write the last
> remaining entries listed below.
>
> Each 1,000 word entry is essentially a literature review. It should
> list the key 8-10 texts on a topic, and discuss the quality, emphasis,
> range and depth of coverage in each. Entries should concentrate on
> reviewing books, key journal articles, collections of articles in book
> form, and individual essays in collections.
>
> If you are interested in writing any of the unassigned entries, please
> contact Carol Jones, the project commissioning editor, at
> [log in to unmask] She will make the formal assignment,
> and provide you with a contributor guide that contains a sample entry.
> Entries will be assigned on a first-come first-served basis, and
> deadlines are negotiable but will necessarily be quite tight at this
> late stage in the project.
>
> I hope that you will be able to take part in what has been a
> well-received and exciting project so far.
