One of the major activities of academics is reviewing colleagues' manuscripts, yet no formal training on how to put together a meaningful review is usually provided by Ph.D. programs or professional associations. Winning Reviews brings together highly-respected scholars to discuss the fundamental nuts and bolts of writing a review. Insights are offered by leading journal editors and the vital role that reviews play in the knowledge creation process is examined. The book provides a comprehensive and much-needed guide to evaluating and reviewing scholarly writing.

Industry Reviews

'This book fills a void that has existed for too long: an examination of the process of reviewing scholarly writing in organizational and managerial spheres. As such, it is an indispensable volume for the shelves of both faculty members and PhD students who aspire to contribute to the literature in their fields as participants in the reviewing process. An all-star line-up of contributors brings order, coherence and perspective to a sometimes hit-or-miss activity.' - Dr. Lyman W. Porter, Professor Emeritus, University of California, USA

'Peer review is the gold standard in academia: all that makes academic

journals valuable to scholars and society rests on the rigorous, blind

assessment fellow scholars voluntary provide. Winning Reviews: A Guide

for Evaluating Scholarly Writing shines a warm, bright light on the

critical contributions reviewing makes to knowledge development,

academic community building, and to the lives of review recipients and

contributors.' - Denise Rousseau, Carnegie Mellon University, USA
