Getting Published traces the steps in manuscript acquisition - initial contact between author and editor, the editor's evaluation of a work, outside review by scholarly peers and final approval by the press' editorial committee. Key consideration procedures and strategies employed by participants at each stage are explored in rich variety and detail.
