Editors.

- In a reference to edited book, place the editor's names in the outhor position, and enclose the abbreviation Ed. or Eds. in parentheses after the last editor's name. The period follows the parenthetical abbreviation (Eds.).

- In a reference to a chapter in an edited book, invert the chapter author's name as noted above but do not invert book's names.

- The name of the book editor should be preceded by the word In. Provide initials and surnames for all editors (for substantial reference works with a large editorial board, naming the lead editor followed by et al. in acceptable).

             location: publisher

- For a book with no editor, simply include the word In before the book title.
