Becoming an Author

This book demystifies all aspects of the move from being an effective student or active professional, to being published. The psychological and emotional barriers are examined as well as clarification of the best processes to get beyond them. The veil of confusion that surrounds the practicalities of publishing in academic journals, or entering the book market place, are drawn aside.

For students, academics and professionals who want to build their careers, their confidence and their personal satisfaction through publication.

David Canter is Professor of Psychology at the University of Liverpool. Gavin Fairbairn is Professor of Ethics and Language at Leeds Metropolitan University.
