Complete information on the journal, including an index of back issues, may be found at http://www.macalester.edu/geography/agr/index.htm. The AGR is one of only two academic journals specializing in the publication of geographic scholarship related to Africa (the other publication is the South African Geographical Journal). The AGR publishes articles on Africa from scholars based all over the world, including a large number at African universities. While the journal is small, it has a long and distinguished history. The journal was originally founded at Makerere University in Uganda and was published from 1963 to 1976 as the East African Geographical Review. Due to political turmoil in Uganda, the journal then had to suspend publication for a number of years. The journal was eventually brought to the United States by African geographers and renamed as the African Geographical Review in 2000. Our subscription rate for institutions is $32 for a year and $60 for two years. For libraries which are EBSCO customers, they can contact their EBSCO regional office about a paper subscription. For libraries which are not EBSCO customers, a subscription may be obtained via Amazon.com or via the individual subscription address provided on our website (to which a check may be sent) (http://www.macalester.edu/geography/agr/subscription.htm). An electronic version of the journal is also delivered to some institutions (mainly university and college libraries) by Academic Search Complete, a service of EBSCO publishing. -- William G.

It is with great pride that we join forces with Cambridge University Press, one of the most renowned academic publishers in the English language. This strategic partnership will prove of great value to the profession in years to come. --Stephen Brown, New York University July 2008, Seattle, WA and New York, NY The University of Washington Foster School of Business and Cambridge University Press are pleased to announce a partnership to publish the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis, beginning in 2009. Since 1966 the journal has covered theoretical and empirical research in financial economics. The JFQA is among the top journals in the field and one of the last major journals to be self-published. With a circulation of more than 3000 libraries, firms, and individuals in 70 nations, the journal serves an international community of finance scholars-academics and practitioners alike. The JFQA is among the premier finance journals in the world, says Thomas W. Lee, Hughes M. Blake Professor of Management, Associate Dean for Academic and Faculty Affairs at the University of Washington. He added that the partnership "will greatly expand the JFQA's readership and influence on the academic research in finance by moving beyond its current print medium to the electronic and web-based world." Three editors oversee the Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis: Hendrik Bessembinder (University of Utah), Stephen Brown (New York University), and Paul Malatesta (University of Washington); the latter of whom writes: "My colleagues and I are excited about our partnership with Cambridge University Press. Cambridge's expertise in publishing academic journals and the depth of their organization will enable us to greatly expand and enhance the JFQA's services to its authors and readers." The journal will go from four issues annually to six issues annually, with an increased online presence. The journal's existing office staff will continue working out of the Seattle office. Hendrik Bessembinder anticipates that "the partnership will lead to improved efficiency and better service for authors, subscribers, and other readers, as well as for the editorial staff." Cambridge University Press publishes more than 230 peer-reviewed academic journals across a wide spread of subject areas, in print and online. Many of these journals are the leading academic publications in their fields and together they form one of the most valuable and comprehensive collections of research available today. The Journal of Financial and Quantitative Analysis will be an important contribution to that collection. Simon Ross, Journals Director at Cambridge, says the JFQA will be the flagship journal in finance for Cambridge, and complements its world-class book publishing program. "We are looking forward to working with the management team of JFQA to take the journal to the next level and ambitious plans are already underway to grow the impact of JFQA internationally."
