* issues in the process of therapy with female clients * problems in living that affect women in greater proportion than men, such as depression, eating disorders, and agoraphobia * women's traditional and nontraditional roles in society and how these affect and can be affected by therapy * the special needs of minority women, lesbians, older women, and women with disabilities * the special needs of feminist therapists * effective interventions and alternatives to traditional treatment approaches. The high-quality articles in Women & Therapy will be of greatest interest to feminist therapists and health professionals; individuals who educate, supervise, or train therapists; individuals in training to become therapists; and feminist researchers and scholars who are interested in issues confronting women and therapy. Few areas in psychology and related health professions have developed as quickly in recent years as women and therapy. This journal investigates challenges in therapy such as: * gender differences and similarities as they relate to biological, personality, cognitive, and developmental factors * women as they enter new roles at work and in personal relationships * the change of attitudes by therapists in interacting with female clients in order to influence and incorporate the changes taking place in society. * the role of the media that has popularized these developments so that the consumer of therapy is better educated about women's issues than ever before. Women make up the overwhelming majority of clients in therapy, yet there has been little attention given to this fact in the training of therapists or in the professional literature. Women & Therapy is designed to fill this void of information. Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by two anonymous referees.

"More than any other journal, Continuum has shaped the field of Cultural Studies in Australia. An indispensable reference point, and always a great read"
Meaghan Morris, UTS, Australia

"This journal is probably the best kept secret in international cultural studies ... [it has] a long tradition of intelligent, thoughtful, tough-minded ... examination of core issues in media studies and popular culture ... Continuum is the place to turn for fresh and unorthodox perspectives on contemporary cultural issues"
Henry Jenkins, MIT, USA

"There is an urgency and a seriousness to Australian debates about culture and media which cannot be ignored - on questions of indigenous culture, the tensions between critical distance and policy making, Asian identities and diasporas and cultural formations around the Pacific Rim ... Continuum is establishing itself as essential reading, not just regionally but globally"
James Donald, University of Sussex, UK

Critical Studies in Education is one of the few international journals that is solely devoted to a critical sociology of education. Two questions frame the journal's critical approach to research: (1) whose interests are served by current social arrangements in education and, (2) from the standpoint of the least advantaged, what can be done about inequitable arrangements? Informed by this approach, articles published in the journal draw on post-structural, feminist, postcolonial and other critical orientations to critique education systems and to identify alternatives for education policy, practice and research. The journal welcomes submissions of the highest quality and importance, which make original theoretical and/or empirical contributions, and are aimed at moving the field forward. Submissions may be focused on education policy and/or practice (including pedagogy) across formal education contexts (e.g. schooling, vocational and further education, higher education) as well as informal settings (e.g. television, communities, the internet). Submissions typically focus on power relations associated with gender, class (/poverty), ethnicity and the reproduction of disadvantage. Submissions and Review ProcessThe submissions and review process is managed online using ScholarOne. All submissions undergo rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees. Articles are published in English. Authors are required to provide informative titles, descriptive abstracts and five to ten keywords per article.
