Notes for Edited Book Chapter Contributors:

1. There is no charge for inclusion in the published book. An auxiliary service is available for any authors interested in Open Access. Open
Access makes the chapter visible free of charge to anyone in the world who has Internet access.

2. There are no page charges for black and white figures and illustrations submissions provided they are sent to Nova with the source files.
Color illustrations are billed at the current rate.

3. A free copy of the e-book version of the book is sent to the first-listed contributor of each chapter. Additional copies are available at a
20% discount. Publication in digital form takes place at approximately the same time as the printed version.

4. The scientific community is the intended audience. Books are marketed by direct mail, space ads, review copies, online bookstore postings
and by our international distributors.

5. The choice of theme and approach are at the discretion of the author but preliminary acceptance is only upon submission of the draft
abstract. The line-up of chapters is a constantly changing landscape since discussions, commitments and submissions continue on a daily basis
right up to and sometimes beyond the close of each volume.

6. Research results (studies) are the primary type of article desired but review articles are also welcome. The Commentary should deal with
innovative ideas, developments, directions, misdirections, areas which need to be explored, future outlook, prior errors, problems, personnel,
funding, or trends in the field which will be published separately under your name in a section titled Expert Commentary. The deadlines for
the abstract for the Commentary and the full Commentary are the same as for regular articles. Please be sure to list the affiliations of the
authors. Short Communications are also subject to the abstract requirement and submission guidelines and deadlines. References and figures are
permitted without limitation.

7. An abstract in the following form is required consisting of: 1. 150-500 words; 2. Author affiliations; and 3. Estimated date of chapter
submission and Copyright Transfer. Please include the abstract as part of an email and not as an attachment if possible. Acceptance of topics
is based partially on which topics have already been accepted for particular volumes. The reply to the draft abstract will contain details
about reference styles and other relevant technical details. A reply and decision may be expected within 7 days if the word Abstract is
contained within the Subject Line of the email.

8. Contributors are encouraged to submit chapters ranging from 4,000-35,000 words (unless Expert Commentaries or Short Communications).
Longer, more extensive contributions are encouraged. In the event of Latex or similar program use, or when a chapter contains numerous tabular
data, graphics, or mathematical formulae, a page range of 10-50 pages is acceptable.

9. Coauthors may be invited by you at your discretion without discussion with Nova.

10. Publication is by invitation only. Reviewing is either carried out in-house at Nova or by an outside peer-reviewer at the option of the
authors. In the latter case, the peer-reviewer's name and affiliation must be included as part of the article to be located at the end after
the References. It should be on a separate line two lines below the last reference and start with the words
Reviewed by................................... It is the author's responsibility to contact the reviewer and take into account any suggestions
or comments.

11. Copyright is transferred to Nova via email. Another form will be sent via email along with the electronic page proofs.

12. Personalized chapter offprints are available.

13. MS Word 2003 or Latex are the preferred input programs for text. When submitting your manuscript, please indicate the program you used
(i.e., MS Word 2003) in the text of your email accompanying the attached manuscript. If Latex, Nova requests use of the Nova macro. The Nova
macros are available from the Nova Website under the tab ‘For Authors.’ This is ARTICLE.STY set at 5.5 inches (13.97 cm) and letter size (not
A4 paper). Please try to use outside justified page headers. If you would like to add any packages to this macro beyond those already
specified, it is mandatory that the corresponding .sty files be submitted with the chapter. Nova currently uses the Windows Operating System.


14. Original high resolution source files for each figure and graphic must be submitted with the manuscript. Acceptable formats are: tiff,
bitmap, jpeg, gif, ppt, psd, png or eps. The resolution should be 350-750 dpi. If no source files are submitted for the figures or graphics a
charge of $50 per figure will apply. The final resolution of figures received without source files cannot be guaranteed.


15. Microsoft Equation Editor or MathType are the preferred input programs for equations.


16. The chapter must be edited for English prior to submission. Nova can provide editorial assistance if required. A list of optional
editorial services is available upon request. Proofs are sent to the Author to check that the manuscript has been properly set in type and
allow him/her to correct any typographical errors. No changes in page layout, fonts, sizes, figure and table placement, spacing and styles can
be made at the Page Proofs stage. Any changes made in page layout at the Page Proofs stage will be subject to additional fees paid by the
author. The Author's approval for printing is considered final if he or she doesn't respond to Nova within 7 days after receiving a page
proofs letter.

17. Video enhancements are possible using the following guidelines: Guidelines for submission of video for enhanced books & enhanced eBooks.
Please submit your video in the one of the following formats: QuickTime Movie, Microsoft AVI, MPEG-1, MPEG-2 or Windows Media. (The extensions
for these formats are .avi, .mpg, .mpeg, .m2v, .mov, .wmv or .wma.). You may also submit video on a DVD from any region, VHS or MiniDV tape.
Video resolution should be at least 720 x 480. Remember to submit the best possible video resolution available. Smaller resolutions are
accepted for eBooks in some circumstances. Please inquire further if your video is acceptable and if your format or resolution does not match
these guidelines.
