The journal aims to consolidate, refine and extend theoretically informed work on the role of health in modern societies. Interest in issues of theory and health now informs many academic and practice-oriented disciplines and crosses discipline boundaries. The Editors encourage contributions from all relevant disciplines, as well as from those involved directly in front-line treatment and care. Contributions from the developing world are particularly welcome. The journal aims to include contributions from all theoretical perspectives.

Rest of World authors Authors should email articles to mscambler@hotmail.com in Word format. Authors should confirm at this point that their article is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Open Access & Self Archiving Authors of accepted papers can opt to pay an Article Processing Charge of £1600 / $2600 (+VAT where applicable) for their articles to be made Open Access online immediately upon publication. By paying this charge authors are also permitted to post the final, published PDF of their article on a website, institutional repository or other free public server, immediately on publication. Please see our FAQs for further details or download our license to publish form. Palgrave Macmillan's publishing policies ensure that authors can fully comply with the public access requirements of many major funding bodies worldwide - please visit www.sherpa.ac.uk for more information. However, it is the author's responsibility to take the necessary actions to achieve compliance. These may include self archiving, opting into Palgrave Macmillan's manuscript deposition service and/or choosing Open Access publication. Authors of accepted articles are encouraged to submit the author's version of the accepted paper (the unedited manuscript) to their funding body's archive, for public release 18 months after publication of the final article in a full paginated journal issue. In addition, authors are encouraged to archive this version of the manuscript in their institution's repositories and on their personal websites, also 18 months after the original publication. This is in line with Palgrave Macmillan's self-archiving policy. Ethics Policy This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics. We expect all prospective authors to read and understand our Ethics Policy before submitting any manuscript to this journal. This policy details the responsibilities of all authors, editors and reviewers working with and for Palgrave Macmillan Journals as well as our own ethical responsibilities. This includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, falsification of data, misuse of third party material, fabrication of results and fraudulent authorship. Please note that submitted manuscripts may be subject to checks using the iThenticate service, in conjunction with CrossCheck, in order to detect instances of overlapping and similar text. The iThenticate software checks submissions against millions of published research papers, documents on the web, and other relevant sources. If plagiarism or misconduct is found, consequences are detailed in the policy. Presentation of the paper Each manuscript should have a title page and an abstract page. The title page should contain the title, name(s) and affiliations of all authors, together with the address, telephone number, fax number and e-mail address of the corresponding author. Articles should not normally exceed 7,000 words in length. Print a word count at the end of the text, together with the date of the manuscript. Provide an abstract of 150-200 words with the article, plus a list of up to 6 keywords suitable for indexing and abstracting services. Give authors' full postal and e-mail addresses as well as telephone and fax numbers. As Social Theory & Health operates a double-blind review policy, please be sure that authors' names are only on the title page and that the abstract page and acknowledgements do not contain information identifying the author(s). Also, please take care to craft a title and an abstract that are direct and "reader-friendly." Titles should be short, and abstracts should be informative for non-specialists. Articles should be in English, typed double-spaced (including all notes and references) on one side only of the paper, preferably A4 or US standard size, with pages numbered. On acceptance of an article, authors are requested to send both a print and electronic version of their article, the latter preferably as a Word file. It is important that your manuscript should be an exact printout of what is on the disk. If the hard copy and disk versions vary, the disk will be taken as the final version. Notes Keep textual notes to an absolute minimum, indicate them with superscript numbers, and provide the note text as a list at the end of the article before the references. Do not use footnotes. References in the text The whole citation should follow the Harvard style, enclosed within parentheses (author surname, year) if not a natural part of the surrounding sentence; the year should be enclosed within parentheses if the names do form a natural part of the surrounding sentence. Citations of works by two authors should have ‘and’ (not an ampersand) between the names. Citations of works by three or more authors should have the first author followed by et al in italics with no trailing stop. Publications by the same author(s) in the same year should be identified with a, b, c (e.g. 2008a, 2008b) closed up to the year. Personal communications should be listed as such where they are cited in the text, and not listed in the references. Example: Since Paterson (1983) has shown that… This is in results attained later (Kramer, 1984). Results have been reported (Don Graham, 1989, personal communication). Articles not yet published should show ‘forthcoming’ in place of the year (in both the reference and the citation). ‘In press’ should be used in place of the volume, issue and page range details. Example: Sharp Parker, A.M. (forthcoming) Cyberterrorism: An examination of the preparedness of the North Carolina local law enforcement. Security Journal, in press.

Spelling Use either UK or US spellings consistently throughout. For UK spellings, take as a guide the new edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary and the Oxford Dictionary for Writers and Editors; Websters Collegiate for US spellings. US spellings will therefore prefer '-ize' to '-ise', as a verb ending (e.g. realize, specialize, recognize, etc.). Illustrations and tables Supply tables, figures and plates on separate sheets at the end of the article, with their position within the text clearly indicated on the page where they are introduced. Provide typed captions for figures and plates (including sources and acknowledgements) on a separate sheet. Electronic versions should be saved in separate files to the main body of text. Authors are requested to follow our instructions on how to prepare and submit their figures, for more information see www.palgrave-journals.com/pal/palgrave_artwork_guidelines.pdf. Present tables with the minimum use of horizontal rules (usually three are sufficient) and avoiding vertical rules, except in matrices. It is important to provide clear copies of figures (not photocopies or faxes) which can be reproduced by the printer and do not require redrawing. Do not use shading. If textures must be used, they should be coarse. Preferably photographs should be black and white glossy prints with a wide tonal range. The journal is printed in black-and-white. Therefore, we prefer that you supply your figures in greyscale. Figures supplied in colour will be converted to greyscale for print unless the author confirms they will cover the cost of printing in colour (costs available from the production/editorial office). You may however request for any/all figures to be shown in colour in the HTML (web) version of your article, but bear in mind that the PDF/print version will still be black-and-white, so please make sure that colour is not critical to understanding any figures; and do not describe elements of the figure in terms of their colours. For example line graphs with several data series can usually be represented adequately in black-and-white by using different line styles and/or different shaped nodes. Proofs The corresponding author will be sent an email containing a link to an online PDF proof of the article. Please print a copy of the PDF proof, correct within the time period indicated and return as directed. Please make no revisions to the final, edited text, except where the copy-editor has requested clarification. PDF Corresponding authors will receive a PDF of their article. This PDF offprint is provided for personal use. It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to pass the PDF offprint onto co-authors (if relevant) and ensure that they are aware of the conditions pertaining to its use. The PDF must not be placed on a publicly-available website for general viewing, or otherwise distributed without seeking our permission, as this would contravene our copyright policy and potentially damage the journal’s circulation.

Copyright Authors are responsible for obtaining permission from copyright holders for reproducing through any medium of communication those illustrations, tables, figures or lengthy quotations previously published elsewhere. Add your acknowledgements to the typescript, preferably in the form of an "Acknowledgements" section at the end of the paper. Credit the source and copyright of photographs or figures in the accompanying captions. The journal's policy is to own copyright in all contributions. Before publication, authors assign copyright to the Publishers , but retain their rights to republish this material in other works written or edited by themselves, subject to full acknowledgement of the original source of publication.
