Reviews of Book and Article Manuscripts:

25

Since about 1995, I have served as an external peer reviewer for numerous article and book manuscripts, for a wide range of journals and publishers. Since these are anonymous peer reviews, I have not listed them separately below, but can provide a full list upon request. Below is a list of some of the journals and book publishers for whom I have served as a peer reviewer. I generally review about 10-12 article or book manuscripts a year, and thus the cumulative total is approximately 150 over the past twenty years.
