The SfEP review of books
Here you will find all the reviews that have appeared in the SfEP magazine Editing Matters from January 2007 – and many more we didn't have room for. The reviews appearing in the latest issue of Editing Matters will always find their way into this section within two months.
The reviewers – all members of the SfEP – have many years of editorial experience under their collective belt plus, in many cases, specialist knowledge.
