The biggest revision in ten years of the Bible of the business (Wall Street Journal). This essential reference for writers, librarians, students of modern literature, and readers worldwide was started in the 1960s during the initial phase of the small-press revolution. It is safe to say that, in its forty-first edition, the directory is a publishing legend. It includes information on over 5,000 presses and journals from around the world, listing addresses, manuscript requirements, payment rates, and recent publications. Subject and regional indexes are also provided.

Using examples from their own work and a huge dash of humor, veteran authors Jane Toombs and Janet Lane Walters guide both the new writer and the experienced through the labyrinth of self-editing.
Rapakivi Granites and Related Rocks tells the story of Rapakivi granites, which are a group of granitic rocks characterized by specific texture (presence of plagioclase-mantled ovoidal to subhedral alkali feldspar megacrysts, two generations of quartz and feldspars) and A-type geochemical composition. Well-known representatives are the Proterozoic rapakivi granites that are found as anorogenic or post-orogenic batholith- to stock-sized intrusive complexes in the Precambrian cratons of Ukraine, Fennoscandia, South Greenland, Canada, United States, Brazil, Venezuela, and Siberia. The current knowledge of the rapakivi granites is largely based on the achievements of three International Geologic...
