The purpose of Sequential Analysis is to contribute to theoretical and applied aspects of sequential methodologies in all areas of statistical science. Published papers highlight the development of new and important sequential approaches.Interdisciplinary articles that emphasize the methodology of practical value to applied researchers and statistical consultants are highly encouraged. Papers that cover contemporary areas of applications including animal abundance, bioequivalence, communication science, computer simulations, data mining, directional data, disease mapping, environmental sampling, genome, imaging, microarrays, networking, parallel processing, pest management, sonar detection, spatial statistics, tracking, and engineering are deemed especially important. Of particular value are expository review articles that critically synthesize broad-based statistical issues. Papers on case-studies are also considered. All papers are refereed.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Seventeenth-Century French Studies (SCFS), which first appeared in 1979, is the annual journal of the Society for Seventeenth-Century French Studies. Peer reviewed by an internationally-based editorial board and invited specialists, the journal publishes high-quality original articles in English and French on a broad range of literary, cultural, historical and theoretical topics relating to early modern France. Studies taking up questions of gender, iconography, body criticism, economics, history of costume and the poetics of memory have recently appeared in broadly themed volumes devoted to: the knowledge economy in the long seventeenth century, conversation, gossip and the voice, image and the imagination, and pedagogy and practice.SCFS welcomes the work of both established figures and young researchers, and has historically provided a unique forum for the strong British tradition of scholarship focussing on the great seventeenth-century French classics, encouraged and supported by the Society’s first president, Roy C Knight. Currently, the journal’s increasingly broad and inclusive stance has widened to include the full range of early modern literary, musical, artistic, political and material concerns. Interdisciplinary studies are particularly welcomed. Some highlights of recent volumes include John Lyons on Lafayette and gemology,Wendy Perkins on women and silence, Peter Bayley on the education of princes, Matt Senior on anatomy at the Jardin du roi, Michael Moriarty on images and idols, Jan Clarke on actresses, Delphine Denis on Scudéry and Alain Viala on stagings of Racine. Fully international in scope, the journal has encouraged contributions from throughout the UK, the US, France, Portugal, Sweden, Turkey, and the Republic of Ireland, among others.
Sex Education is an international refereed journal concerned both with the practice of sex education and with the thinking that underpins it. Contributions are welcomed from within a variety of academic disciplines - particularly health education, sociology, philosophy and psychology - and from a variety of ideological standpoints. Submitted work should connect significantly with issues concerned with sex education and have presumptions made by the author(s) described and defended. Sex Education does not assume that sex education takes place only in educational institutions and the family. Contributions are therefore welcomed which, for example, analyse the impacts of media and other vehicles of culture on sexual behaviour and attitudes. Medical and epidemiological papers (e.g. of trends in the incidences of sexually transmitted infections) will not be accepted unless their educational implications are discussed adequately. Interview with the Editor - Listen to Michael Reiss talk about Sex Education Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.

Slavic & East European Information Resources (SEEIR) serves as a focal point for the international exchange of information in the field of Slavic* librarianship. Affiliated with the Association for Slavic, East European and Eurasian Studies (ASEEES), this English-language journal features original research, new developments in the field, regular columns and reviews of relevant material. Subjects covered include acquisitions, cataloging and metadata, collection development and management, digitization, information literacy instruction, preservation, and reference; as well as works on individual Slavic collections, Slavic book studies, as well as anything that touches on the practice of Slavic librarianship in North America, in the countries covered, and elsewhere in the world. Goals of the journal include enabling widespread Slavic librarians to exchange information and be aware of each other's efforts; serving as the backbone of an international network of mutually supportive Slavic librarians; promoting the development of Slavic librarianship; and contributing to the improvement of the status, condition, and accessibility of Slavic collections everywhere.Although Slavic librarians are SEEIR's main readership, any librarian with responsibility for Slavic collections, or serving students or scholars of Slavic studies, will find it useful.*The terms "Slavic" and "Slavic & East European" are to be understood as shorthand for the following Slavic and non-Slavic countries: Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Georgia, (Modern) Greece, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, the Russian Federation, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan.
