The Journal of International Wildlife Law and Policy (JIWLP), a Taylor & Francis Informa publication, would like to find college/university faculty members or full time professional researchers to write book reviews of the titles listed, below.  (These book review commissions are not offered to graduate students).

Linda Fasulo, AN INSIDER’S GUIDE TO THE U.N. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 2004).  [Contains chapters on global resource and environmental management].

Commitments:

Each review should be at least 900 to 1,000 words long and must be submitted for copy editing by July 1st, 2005 (or earlier).  Authors will assume responsibility for evaluating each book in the context of other recent and relevant publications. Prospective authors can also suggest longer book review essays of, perhaps, 3,000 to 4,000 words, the exact parameters to be negotiated.

T & F Informa provide to authors 25 free offprint copies of reviews published in JIWLP.  Additional offprints can be purchased.  The footnote and citation style of JIWLP conforms to the legal Bluebook and is explained on the Journal's web site, http://www.jiwlp.com.  Copies of the books for review are provided and can be kept.

Readers with a serious interest in these commissions should contact me by e-mail.

Colleagues are encouraged to bring these opportunities to the attention of others who are not members of the gep-ed list.

Geoffrey.
