Publishing

Call for Book Reviewers

Common Ground Publishing is fully committed to ensuring that each manuscript we receive is fully peer reviewed. Common Ground sends each single- and multi-author manuscript received to peer reviewers to further evaluate and provide constructive feedback. The comments and guidance that these reviewers supply is invaluable to our authors and an essential part of the publication process.

Common Ground Publishing is seeking peer reviewers to build up our peer reviewer pools in each knowledge community. If you are interested in serving as a volunteer peer reviewer, please email your complete CV to support@religioninsociety.com and indicate your interests in your field so we can place the proper manuscripts with you for review.

New Journal Issue Released

We are pleased to announce the publication of The International Journal of Religion and Spirituality in Society, Volume 4, Issue 2.

Copies of this issue are available in our online bookstore.

The Hotel Durant in downtown Berkeley is a 15-minute walk from the conference venue and is situated in the heart of the city's theater, entertainment, and business district.
