Dear all,
What do you think, in what situation (if ever) an editor or reviewer (or
all in one) can become a co-author of a technical book in progress???
In case of the positive answer, would is "say" something about the
author, "co-author" and the publisher (leaving out the book)???
Nice weekend,
Rita Puzmanova
