Position Available: Book Review Editor The Ecological Society of America invites applications for the position of Book Review Editor. We seek an individual with a good eye for a book worth reviewing and a familiarity with the broad brush of ecology, as well as a keen and discriminating awareness of the pool of book reviewers-scientists who are willing to pen a good review and to sign a critical one.
The Book Review Editor is responsible for selecting the books to be reviewed, commissioning the reviewers, keeping the reviewers on schedule, editing the reviews, checking all the galleys, and working in conjunction with the Publications Office to publish an average of 3-4 Book Reviews in each issue of Ecology, published monthly. If you are interested in applying for this position, please describe your interest, vision, background, and skills in a letter to Joshua Schimel, Chair, ESA Publications Committee at [email protected] and Katherine McCarter, Executive Director ESA.
