General
writing style. Although CNS is an academic journal, we strive
to make the material in our pages clear and accessible to a wide audience.
Therefore, we encourage contributors to use clear, plain language
and avoid academic jargon.
Spelling. We use U.S. English spelling and usage. In particular, use
—at instead of -ise (as in "globalize"), -er rather
than —re (as in "center"), and —or rather than
—our spellings (as in "labor").
Footnotes
are used at the bottom of each page instead of at the end or "innotes"
in parentheses within sentences. Notes are numbered in the same font
as the rest of the essay. Acknowledgements are placed before the numbered
notes and marked by an asterisk. References arc noted in the footnotes.
Some examples are primed below:

Quotation
marks. Use double quotation marks generally, with single
quotation marks for quotes within quotes. Punctuation should be within
quotation marks. Displayed extracts of more than one long sentence
are set apart from the rest of the text by indentation at both ends
with no additional space before or after. These extracts do not need
quotation marks. For words added that arc not found in the original
quotation, use square brackets to indicate they are not part of the
quoted matter.
Emphasis. Words that the author wants to emphasize in the text should
be italicized rather than underlined. Dates are written in the style
July 15, 1998, and decades as (he seventies or the 1970s without an
apostrophe. A range of years is elided to the last two digits, such
as 1987-88.
Illustrations
and captions to illustrations. Authors must obtain permission
ro reproduce illustrations and pay the copyright fees and other costs.
The location of the illustration in the printed text should be indicated
clearly on the manuscript with a figure number and caption, e.g. "Insert
figure 2 about here." A separate numbered caption sheet should
contain the artist's name, title, print, process, date and owner.
Illustrations should be on a separate sheet and not included in the
text.
