Public Administration and Management: An .Interactive Journal (PAMIJ) a publication of the Southern Public Administration Education Foundation, Inc. (SPAEF) is seeking reviews of books of all types that would be of interest to both academicians and practitioners in public administration, management, government, politics, social sciences, health administration, economics and other closely related disciplines. These would include history, autobiography, biography, and science and technology policy. Even books of good quality fiction whose theme embraces any of the subjects of interest to the public sector would be welcome.

Book reviews can be a brief synopsis of 150-300 words describing the book’s topical coverage and who may be interested. Longer essays globally discussing a book’s particular thesis and its impact on the field are welcome with a word length up to 1500 words. And, of course, multiple book review essays on a common them of current or historical interests with a word length up to 3000 words are sought.

Please submit your book review proposal directly to me by email and I will endeavor to acquire a review copy of the book through the publisher for you or if you already have the book, you may submit your review directly to me by email. Also, I will be soliciting books for review from publishers and as they arrive, I will post the titles on the journal’s website. If a particular book interests you, contact me by email, and I will arrange to have it shipped to you for review.

In addition, I will be writing a “Book Briefs” section for each edition of the journal in which I will work to touch on books that are coming out in the near future. It is my hope to get on the early release press notices of key publishers so I can get information on new releases that may interest our readers.

Finally, as a guide to book reviewers, please write your reviews in the template offered on the journal’s website which is www.pamij.com so that we can get it posted to the electronic journal as efficiently as possible.
