Submission Policy

Please observe these few guidelines when submitting books or publications for review:

  • Take extra caution in packaging your material prior to sending. Remember, we scan the actual publication to obtain a presentable graphic for use on our website. Damaged publications make for poor graphics.
  • Submit exactly what is marketed to the public. Nothing more, nothing less.
  • If your Preface or Introduction section does not address the target market or the intended use, please include a small write-up indicating so. This helps us in reviewing the publications intended purpose.
  • Contact Martin to obtain the nearest mailing address.

But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
