Reviews Committee
Reviews Committee
Overview
Submit reviews of current geophysical and geological literature (primarily recently published books) for publication in TLE.
Objectives
Committee members receive a list of books available for review and indicate items they would like to review. The books are requested and sent to them directly from the publishers. Finished reviews are sent to the chair for approval and edited for publication in TLE. Committee members may recommend titles they would like to review, and staff will contact the publisher to request a copy. The chair may invite guest reviewers, who need not be an SEG Member, to review a book.
Composition and Membership
The chair, appointed by the Vice President, Publications, selects the committee members (up to 35). Members need excellent analytic and writing skills. All membership levels (Active, Associate, and Emeritus) are welcome.
