Guidelines for Contributors
The standard length of papers is 25 pages (6000 words). Papers for submission should
be typed, double spaced on one side of the paper with margins of 3cm. Dot Matrix
printers should not be used. Contributors using word processors and computers should
use Letter Quality printers and carbon ribbons. Three copies should be submitted.
Copies of the manuscripts will not be returned. Authors should ensure they keep a copy.
Contributions will be considered for publication only on the understanding that they are
not simultaneously under consideration elsewhere, that they are the original work of the
author(s), and that any form of publication is disclosed. The editors reserve the right
to make editorial adjustments to papers submitted.
Title, author's name, full address and brief biographical note should be typed on a
seperate sheet. An abstract of one page (200-250 words) should also be typed on a
seperate sheet. Figures, maps and diagrams should be precisely and boldly drawn to
permit photographic reproduction. Notes should appear at the end of the text.
Referencing in the text should be as follows:
