Report of the Editor‐in‐Chief
报告了2007年期刊投稿量增加、国际性增强但接收率未增，回应时间达标，引文影响因子略有下降但仍强劲，以及出版平台和档案上线计划。
Summary 2007 has seen a further increase in submissions to the Journal, with an increasingly international pattern, though no corresponding increase in accepted papers. Response times continue to meet our target of 4 months, with some regrettable lapses. The citation impact factor has slipped a little from last year but continues to be strong relative to our historical performance. Wiley‐Blackwell continue to provide a strong publishing platform, and will soon mount our full archive on‐line in Blackwell Synergy, which is to be merged with Wiley Interscience in January 2009.
