New Thesis

Information for Authors

Issue 2 will be published in January 2005. Authors who wish to submit manuscripts for issue 2 should initially contact the editor with an abstract, to ensure that the subject proposed is within the remit of the journal. Note that due to peer review considerations, final manuscripts should reach the editor no later than August 15th 2004. For publication in subsequent issues, authors will not need to submit initial abstracts, and manuscript submission will be an on-going process with papers being published as soon as possible after acceptance.

All prospective and invited authors should read the Editorial Policy and Author Guidelines, which are linked at the bottom of this page.

Manuscript submission is electronic. Manuscripts must be prepared using the template that can be downloaded through the links at the bottom of this page. A brief guide to using the templates is available.
