Virtually all of us on the faculty have sent a piece of writing to a journal editor and gotten it back with comments from “peer reviewers.” Typically, we use the comments and suggestions from our peers to guide revision and prepare our work for publication. Many of us find professional peer review vital: it suggests different perspectives and provides valuable feedback on what is compelling and what is problematic in a manuscript. At the same time, peer responses have helped many of us to better understand the “nuts and bolts” of professional writing in our field.
