Manuscripts should be previously unpublished, and not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Submission of a manuscript to APMJ is taken to indicate the author's commitment to publish in the journal. An international panel of advisers will act as referees. To preserve anonymity in the review process, only the title should appear on the manuscript. A separate cover page with title, author's name and affiliation should be attached. Copyright on contributions passes to APMJ upon publication. Manuscripts are not returned to authors. Contributors will receive published copies of their article or review.

Main articles should be approximately 7,000-8,000 words long; Book reviews should be approximately 1,000 words long.Submit graphs, maps, and charts in camera ready form. For graphs and charts, provide also originating values to allow for APMJ standardized reproduction of the figure. Include an abstract of approximately 100 words summarizing the findings.
