Writing in English is different from writing in any European language. Getting Published in International Journals, Revised Edition, gives European social scientists and other professionals the analytical, contextual, structural, and stylistic writing tools for competing with native speakers of English for limited space in international journals. The book reveals the unwritten rules of English academic rhetoric and discusses them within the context of the different and unconscious expectations accorded both readers and writers with the English linguistic community.Author Natalie Reid presents five major strategies for maximizing the academic writer’s chances of publication in the top journals in his or her field. These strategies help the writer to recognize and work with linguistic and organizational cues not readily apparent to the untrained eye. In great detail and with numerous examples, the book explains the importance of absolute clarity and Aristotelian argumentation in English academic writing, and gives its readers the grammatical and stylistic tricks of the trade for achieving their publication goals.Getting Published in International Journals, Revised Edition, functions as both a textbook and a reference work. Its contents cover everything from the grammar rules necessary for the creation of clear sentences to the differences between American and British English, and from how to analyze models of academic abstracts to how to create a successful revise-and-resubmit letter. The book clearly demonstrates what goes wrong when second-language speakers write for English-language journals according to the academic norms of their first language. Moreover, the revised edition contains a wealth of new details on Anglo-American argumentation, the process of journal elimination, and the linguistic (and organizational) analysis of the writer’s target journal.
