From the Editors
这封编辑来信讨论了期刊审稿流程的变化，包括审稿意见和编辑回信的平均长度自1980年代中期以来的变化，以及每篇投稿使用三位审稿人的惯例。
A letter from the editor is presented, which discusses the review process of publications submitted to the periodical. He mentions how the average length of reviews have changed since the mid-1980s, along with the length of the letters from the editors to the authors of the manuscripts. The audience of the reviews are looked at as the author of the manuscript as well as the editor of the periodical. This periodical uses three reviewers for every submitted manuscript, and the ad hoc reviewers are not required to prove their qualifications, although two of the three reviewers are usually part of the editorial board.
