Latest Issue

Please note:

• Once an article has been rejected, an author cannot resubmit either an amendment to this article or another article for this issue of the journal.
• We will only accept one submission from any author in a particular issue and no more than two submissions, in different issues, over the course of a year. This includes both individual and shared authorship. If you submit as an individual you may not be a shared author on another submission, and vice versa. Also, if you have had a submission rejected you cannot be an author on another paper for that same issue.
