Advances in Mathematics and Engineering

Series Editor: Mangey Ram __________________________________________________________________

CRC Press is committed to publishing, up-to-date, state of the art, technical /reference engineering publications.

With this in mind, CRC Press is always looking for potential authors who feel they can make a difference to the literature in their areas of expertise. If you have published technical papers, conducted professional seminars,

solved important real-world technical problems, or are currently teaching at a university and have gathered enough research information that could develop into a course textbook, you could be an excellent candidate for

authorship.

Developing a book proposal is easy. Simply answer the following questions as completely as you can:

What is the key benefit for potential buyers?

Please give a one-line handle that describes your book and could be used for promotional purposes:

Please attach proposed table of contents, including section and sub-section headings:Please note that with the direction today’s technology is moving, in regards to e-books, all chapters should begin with a chapter abstract (about 150 words). These abstracts, increasingly required by e-book vendors, although they won’t be published in the book and should not be listed in the table of contents, they will become part of the book’s metadata and will allow users, particularly library patrons, to search your book’s content more thoroughly. Please keep in mind that providing good metadata substantially increases the visibility of your book. All chapter abstracts should be put in a separate folder marked “Abstracts”, when your manuscript is submitted.

Please attach proposed preface:

MANUSCRIPT INFORMATIONReminders: Permissions - It is the responsibility of the author to go after, pay for, and secure permission to reuse any already published material that may be included in their book. Although we strongly encourage authors to use their own original unpublished material, we do understand at times, borrowed material might be needed. So to prevent any delays from the manuscript going into production, it is extremely important that you as the author take care of any permissions if needed, before the manuscript is delivered to us.

Index - The index is to be prepared and submitted by the author. A guide for compiling an index will be provided. To help avoid any unnecessary or possible delays with the production schedule of your book, it is advised that you begin to develop your index as soon as you deliver your completed manuscript. Then once you receive the page proofs, you can then use the page numbers to list in the index you created.

In the event that the author cannot create or supply an index, the publisher will arrange to have the index created and the costs will be charged against the author’s royalties. The cost is estimated to be about $4.00 per printed page, but it could be more.

Please note that the index will need to be submitted to the vendor once corrected proofs have been returned by the author. It is not to be submitted with the manuscript

Approximately how many manuscript (typewritten, double-spaced) pages, would you expect your manuscript to contain?

What date do you expect to deliver your complete and final manuscript to us?

Please list the estimated number of any special physical features such as: Total number of figures:

(please break the above number down below) Photos: Line drawings: Total number of tables: Total number of equations: Total number of problems: Total number of case studies:

(please break the above number of case studies down to how many will be domestic and how many will be international below) Domestic Case Studies:__________ International Case Studies:_______

Color figures, or any color inside of a book adds extra production cost to the book. We encourage you to go with b/w (black & white) figures/photos. Please confirm that your figures/photos can be done in b/w:

Please know that sending in color figures, thinking that we can easily remove the color, is not always a cost-free function we can do. It can cost us to have to remove color from a figure. It also can harm the quality of the figure.

With that in mind, please make sure all figures are sent in as b/w.

Also, to keep our production costs down, we encourage our authors to create their own Index for the book. An easy step-by-step guide will be sent to you.
