Perspectives is an interdisciplinary journal published by the Johns Hopkins University Press. Our readers include biologists, physicians, students, and scholars in other disciplines who are interested in biology and medicine. The journal publishes essays that place biological or medical subjects in broader historical, ethical, or cultural contexts. The journal is widely-indexed and is available through Project Muse of the Johns Hopkins University Press. More information is available on our web site, <http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/pbm/>. While we have no word limit, most of our essays aree in the range of 4,000 to 9,000 words. Manuscripts should be prepared according to Chicago Manual of Style. Because of their conviction that scientific writing should not be stilted, ponderous, or dull, the editors encourage an informal, humanistic style that preserves the warmth, excitement, and color of the life and medical sciences. We seek essays with sound and responsible scholarship that will hold our readers' attention and interest. All essays are subject to peer review before publication.
