CMS Book Series Call for Submission

The SPA invites you to submit manuscripts to their Culture, Mind, and Society (CMS) Book Series, published by Palgrave Macmillan (part of the Springer Nature Group)

The SPA and Palgrave-Macmillan aim at publishing innovative research that explores the interface of human subjects (emotions, thoughts, and experiences) and their material, social, cultural, and political milieus. Psychological Anthropology is broadly defined in this book series. It includes all research in the diverse fields of psychology, biomedicine, psychiatry, and anthropology that examines human emotions, cognitions, ideas, actions, interactions, and their work in social micro-level sites and in connection with broad social fields, organizations, institutions, nation-states, and other power structures.   

The series welcomes proposals for either monographs or edited volumes – in the form of short books (25,000-50,000 words) or full-length (70,000-120,000).

Please see the series description and guidelines on the Palgrave website: https://link.springer.com/series/14947.   

Palgrave distributes and promotes the book series online and through other channels. All titles are included in an eBook subject collection, which attracts over 50 million users from 15,000 institutions worldwide and offers tangible benefits in making our books highly downloaded and cited, hence amplifying the reach of our work. In addition to this, on publication, all titles will feature on a product page on SpringerLink, including ‘Look Inside’ functionality, full book and individual chapter download functionality, social media sharing buttons, and Bookmetrix indicating citations, readers, and downloads. On this page, customers can view all product details, access sample content, and order your book in both print and electronic form.

Palgrave editors regularly attend international conferences and meetings, including the AAA and EASA, to promote recent publications in the series as well as the Anthropology program more broadly.

Potential authors can contact Clelia Petracca, Commissioning Editor at Palgrave Macmillan (clelia.petracca@palgrave.com) or Yehuda Goodman, our book series editor and a SPA board member (ygoodman@huji.ac.il).

Thank you,

Clelia Petracca
