AI can review manuscripts 23% faster than humans alone. But speed isn't everything in academic publishing.

As Roohi Ghosh, Co-Chair of the Peer Review Week Steering Committee 2025, reminds us: "We must reimagine peer review to transcend traditional methods, embrace AI's potential, and ensure that the process retains its essential humanity."

While AI excels at pattern recognition and efficiency, it struggles with context sensitivity, unexpected insights, and the nuanced judgment that quality book publishing demands.

The real opportunity lies in human-AI collaboration, leveraging technology to support, not replace, the critical thinking that drives academic progress. Our community of reviewers, editors, and authors remains irreplaceable.

Peer review is at a crossroads. After centuries of evolution, it now faces reviewer burnout, shrinking expert pools, and AI's rapid integration into editorial workflows.

The question isn't whether AI will reshape peer review, it's how we integrate it thoughtfully with human expertise. This is especially critical for Open Access books, which require deeper contextual understanding than journal articles and serve broader, more diverse audiences.

Our latest blog for Peer Review week explores how AI can support (not replace) human reviewers in book publishing, examining both the opportunities and the limitations of this technological shift.

The future of academic integrity depends on getting this balance right.

🌍 New Open Access Book!

We’re proud to present Transitioning to Climate Action by Dr. Roshnie A. Doon, part of our Transitioning to Sustainability series.

This volume argues that climate action is not about sacrifice, it’s about necessity. Drawing on insights from academia, governments, businesses, and civil society, it explores how we can overcome financial, political, and cognitive barriers to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement and shift toward a regenerative future.
