Last Call: Reflections of an Editor | Leegwater, A. 2011.
PSCF 63(4):217-218. CELD ID 24941Abstract No, this is not the last call at your local pub, much as I delighted in reading Daniel Okrent's recent book, Last Call: The Rise and Fall of Prohibition (New York: Scribner, 2011). Rather, as editor of PSCF, I need to compose a short opinion piece for each issue. Writing it has been one of the more challenging duties I assumed when becoming editor four years ago. This editorial will be my "last call." Beginning in 2012, James Peterson, Director of the Center for Religion and Society at Roanoke College in Salem, Virginia, presently one of our book review editors, will become the new editor of PSCF. Perhaps this period of transition is a good occasion to analyze and reflect on some of my experiences as editor of a journal dealing with "perspectives on science and Christian faith."
