Ethnicity & Health is an international academic journal designed to meet the world-wide interest in the health of ethnic groups. It embraces original papers from the full range of disciplines concerned with investigating the relationship between 'ethnicity' and 'health' (including medicine and nursing, public health, epidemiology, social sciences, population sciences, and statistics). The journal also covers issues of culture, religion, gender, class, migration, lifestyle and racism, in so far as they relate to health and its anthropological and social aspects.
The journal aims to:
- Deal with practice and policy in a thoughtful and critical way.
- Present empirical material in a way that considers theoretical issues (in addition to implications for policy and practice, given the contested nature of both 'ethnicity' and 'health'.
- Address the methodological problems that face both qualitative and quantitative studies in multi-cultural societies.
readership:
Ethnicity & Health is directed at the international community. Its audience includes: academics, health and social care practitioners, those who train practitioners, and those in the policy and voluntary sectors.

Instructions to Authors
Submissions. Ethnicity & Health welcomes original contributions from all parts of the world on the understanding that their contents have not previously been published or submitted for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts should be sent as an e-mail attachment to: ethnicity.health@gerrish.org.uk. The manuscript should be in the form of a single word-processed file in MS Word or rich text format. Any tables and figures should be positioned at the end of this document. In exceptional circumstances if e-mail is not available, hard copy will be acceptable. Four complete copies, together with a copy on disc conforming to the above specification should be sent to: Professor Kate Gerrish, School of Nursing and Midwifery, University of Sheffield, 301 Glossop Road, Sheffield S10 2HL, UK. Full notes for contributors can also be found on the Taylor & Francis website at www.tandf.co.uk/journals.
Manuscripts. All submissions must be in the style of the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals (International Committee of Medical Journal Editors, 5th ed., N Eng J Med 1997; 356: 309-15). Papers should be typed on one side of the paper, double spaced, with margins of at least 2.5 cm (1 inch). All pages must be numbered. The first page should include the title of the paper, first name, middle initial(s) and last name of the author(s), for each author a short institutional address, and an abbreviated title (for running headlines within the article). At the bottom of the page give the full name and address (including fax number and e-mail address if possible) of the author to whom all correspondence (including proofs) should be sent. The second page should repeat the title and contain an abstract of not more than 300 words. The third page should repeat the title as a heading to the main body of the text. The text should normally be divided into sections with the headings: Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion. Long articles may need subheadings within some sections to clarify their contents.
Authors are requested to nominate up to three independent reviewers. Please submit suggested reviewers with your manuscript, together with their postal and e-mail addresses.
Abstracts. All papers must be summarized in an abstract, structured under the headings Objective(s), Design, Result(s) and Conclusion if appropriate. If they so wish, authors are welcome to prepare an abstract in a second language, where appropriate, alongside the abstract in English.
References. The reference system preferred in this journal (Harvard style) uses within the text, the name of the author and the date of publication in chronological order, e.g. (Harvey 1997; Jackson 1998). Where there are three or more authors, the first author's name followed by et al. should be used, e.g. (Dear et al 1997), but all authors should be cited in the reference list. Two or more works by one author in the same year should be distinguished by using 1980a, 1980b, etc. Page numbers should be given in the text for all quotations e.g. (Jackson 1998: 56).
References should be listed in alphabetical order according to first author. The content and form of the reference list should conform to the following examples.
Journal article: the reference should include authors' surnames and initials, date of publication, title of paper, name of journal, volume number (and issue number where volume pages do not run on) and first and last page numbers, e.g. James S.A., Strogatz D.S., Wing S.B. & Ramsey D.L. (1987) 'Socio-economic status, John Henryism and hypertension in blacks and whites', American Journal of Epidemiology, vol. 126, pp. 664-673.
Book: the reference should include authors' surnames and initials, date of publication, title of book, place of publication and publisher, e.g. Fenton S. (1999) Ethnicity: Racism, Class and Culture, Basingstoke, MacMillan.
Chapter in an edited book: the reference should include details of the authors and editors together with the first and last pages, e.g. Krieger N. (2000) 'Discrimination and Health', in Social Epidemiology, eds L. Berkman & I. Kawachi, Oxford, Oxford University Press, pp. 36-75.
Theses: the reference should include the type of degree and awarding institution, e.g. Currer C.M. (1986) Health concepts and illness behaviour: the case of Pathan women in Britain. PhD thesis, University of Warwick.
Newspaper: the reference should include the title of the publication, the date of publication and the page number, e.g. Marr A. (1999) So what kind of England do we really stand for?, Observer, 31 Oct. 22-23.
Units of measurement must be cited in SI units.
Illustrations (including photographs, graphs and diagrams) should be referred to as Figures and their position indicated in the text (e.g. Figure 3). Each should be submitted on a separate page, numbered in Arabic numerals. The captions should also be submitted on a separate page, should include keys to symbols and should make interpretation possible without reference to the text. Figures should ideally be professionally drawn and designed with the format of the journal (248?75 mm) in mind and should be capable of reduction.
Tables should be submitted on separate pages, numbered in Arabic numerals, and their position indicated in the text (e.g. Table 1). Each table should have a short, self-explanatory title. Vertical rules should not be used to separate columns. Units should not appear in the body of the table. Any explanatory notes should be given as a footnote at the bottom of the table.
Proofs are supplied for checking and making essential typographical corrections, not for general revision or alteration. Proof corrections must be returned (by e-mail or fax) within 72 hours of receipt.
Early Electronic Offprints. Corresponding authors can now receive their article by e-mail as a complete PDF. This allows the author to print up to 50 copies, free of charge, and disseminate them to colleagues. In many cases this facility will be available up to two weeks prior to publication. Or, alternatively, corresponding authors will receive the traditional 50 offprints. A copy of the journal will be sent by post to all corresponding authors after publication. Additional copies of the journal can be purchased at the author's preferential rate of ?5.00 per copy.

This enables us to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and the journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate.
