Biography
Jerry Wellington is Professor in the School of Education, University of Sheffield.
'Getting Published meets a real need ... Author Jerry Wellington ... knows his stuff: the chapters on the do's and don'ts of academic publishing are first class.

'This is an excellent book for those in academic institutions who have moved into roles where they know they should be thinking about writing but are uncertain about how to start ...Through this book the author's supportive, practical, approach helps to remove real or imagined obstacles and answers many of the concerns the new writer may have.
