Publication Process

1. Reviewing and Promptness of Publication

All Books submitted for publication are immediately subjected to editorial scrutiny, in consultation with members of the Bentham Advisory Board and by neutral independent reviewers. Every effort will be made to peer review submitted Books rapidly. Books which are delayed by authors in revision for more than 30 days will have to be re-submitted as a new submission. Books accepted for publication are typeset and proofs are dispatched to authors for any corrections prior to final publication.


2. Language and Editing

Books/Chapters must be written in good English in a clear and correct style. In order to maintain uniformity throughout the text, the Book/chapters should be written in either American or British English. Submitted Books/chapters will not be edited for style or language, and the publisher and / or reviewers may advise rejection of a Book/chapters if it is has grammatical errors. Non-native speakers of English may choose to avail copyediting and language editing services provided by Eureka Science (www.eureka-science.com) (please contact at email: info@eureka-science.com)


3. Proof Corrections

Editors/Authors will receive page proofs of their accepted Book/chapter before publication. To avoid delays in publication, proofs should be checked immediately for typographical errors and returned within 48 hours. Major changes are not acceptable at the proof stage. If unable to send corrections within 48 hours due to some reason, the author(s) must at least send an acknowledgement on receiving the galley proofs or the Book/chapter will be published exactly as received and the publishers will not be responsible for any error occurring in the published material in this regard.


4. Plagiarism Prevention

BSP uses the iThenticate software to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in submitted chapters. iThenticate software checks content uploaded by the editorial office against a database of periodicals, the Internet, and a comprehensive database. It generates a similarity report, including the percentage overlap between the uploaded chapters and published material. Any instances of content overlap are treated according to an Book peer review integrity statement and the policies recommended by the editorial Committee. The publishers assure to be committed to actively combating plagiarism and publishing original research.
