Following on from the conference announcement in the previous post GAMBLING, PREDICTION MARKETS AND PUBLIC POLICY I will use this post to intoduce the relatively new business and economics journal that goes by the name of:

The Journal of Gambling Business and Economics

Aims and Scope

The Journal of Gambling Business and Economics is an academic peer reviewed journal publishing articles both commissioned and submitted, survey articles, case studies and book reviews.

The Journal is a general journal publishing articles on business and economic aspects of the study of gambling.

The Journal is aimed at academics and students of business, finance, economics and the social sciences, and all those with an interest in the business of gambling. It is planned that the journal will be abstracted in the Social Science Citation Index and with Econlit.

The editorial board is a who's who of the UK academic community with an interest in gambling (studying and taking part). I know many of these individuals and a fine editorial board they make to.
