About
Book reviews provide an important service to the field, but are also a valuable opportunity for graduate students and early-career scholars to build their brand and get experience with publication. This one-hour online workshop will explore how the most successful reviews add value to the book and connect it with potential readers, rather than just evaluate. But how can your review add value to a book, and establish you as a rising voice in the field?
We answer this question as well as suggesting best practices for the process of arranging for, writing, and publishing a book review, including: How do I pick a journal to publish my review? How do I pick a book to review? How and when should I approach the journal? How do I read the book in preparation for the review? What should a book review contain? What should I expect from the editorial process?
