conferences and conventions, happenings, and so forth, for our September
2004 issue (which is normally published in mid-autumn). Reviews should be
approximately 2000-3500 words long and should follow the journal's format
guidelines below.

To publish a review in the next issue, we will need to receive it no later

specifically commissioned a review.
