Upon receipt of a manuscript, the opinions of at least two reviewers will be obtained. The substantive criticisms and comments of the reviewers will be forwarded to the author(s) along with the publication decision of the editor. Normally the time elapsed between receipt of a manuscript and a decision is approximately 5 weeks.

Reprints are available at the time of publication.  A copy of the reprint cost form is available upon request.
