In the interest of preserving academic independence in the ASR reviews, we cannot accept unsolicited reviews.

The Book Review Editors seek individuals well qualified by research interest and publications to review books in their specific areas of expertise. In exchange for writing a publishable book review, the author of the book review gets to keep the book. No other remuneration is provided.

We respect the right of the book reviewer to write her/his own assessment of a book, and we have no intention of editing that judgment. At the same time, we may need to edit for length, spelling, and expression, and will confer with our book reviewers on such matters whenever we propose changes.
