Manuscript Editing for Journal of Health Politics Policy and Law Articles

Order Manuscript Editing The Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law studies how health policy is initiated, formulated, and implemented, and how government and health have related over time. Duke University Press publishes it. The journal describes itself as a primary channel of communication across the disciplines it serves.

Citations and references follow the Chicago Manual of Style author-date system, with exceptions set out in the JHPPL style sheet. Original research carries a structured abstract under Context, Methods, Findings, and Conclusions. Manuscripts are anonymized for an editor's prereview and then double-blind peer review. Off the Grid Editing prepares manuscripts in Chicago author-date style and applies the style sheet's exceptions.
