Comment on Open-Access Articles for Sale as Expensive Books on Amazon by J_C
Interesting. The similarities between the methods used by James Bonnar, Applied Research Press, and James Stryker are striking.
Further, their content is also typically released in chunks. For example, Applied Research Press released 4 volumes of their Biomedical Research Journal (53-56) on October 16th, 2014.
(Vol. 53 had a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Biomedical-Research-Volume-53/659076714207992)
James Stryker released all 12 of his Wikipedia books in a three day span: Dec. 1st-3rd, 2013.
Additionally, they both use similar book formats, including copied book summaries. On Amazon, Ebola in a Nutshell’s summary includes opening remarks about the book followed by a list of its contents. Part of that opening was taken straight from the description of Harvey Lodish’s “Molecular Cell Biology:”
Bonnar: “With its acclaimed authors, cutting-edge content, emphasis on medical relevance, and coverage based on landmark research, Ebola in a Nutshell has earned an impeccable reputation as an authoritative and exciting curated research journal and learning aid, perfect for students, medical professionals and other sophisticated readers.”
Lodish: “With its acclaimed author team, cutting-edge content, emphasis on medical relevance, and coverage based on landmark experiments, Molecular Cell Biology has justly earned an impeccable reputation as an authoritative and exciting text.”
Of course Stryker’s Wikipedia book summaries are taken straight from Wikipedia. These Wikipedia books are no longer available for purchase. However, if you go to James Stryker’s Createspace page or his other Amazon page (http://www.amazon.com/JamesStryker/e/B00V34YCCO/ref=dp_byline_cont_book_1),
there are several other books whose descriptions were also copied. For instance, his Funny Cats Coloring Book (a book containing B&W versions of popular and freely available cat photos) has a summary that was taken from the “Flower Desgins Coloring Book” by Jenean Morrison:
Stryker:
“Explore your creativity with the Funny Cats Coloring Book, by artist James Stryker! James has brought you 25 hilarious cat images of varying styles and difficulty levels, so colorists of all ages will enjoy this book. The Funny Cats Coloring Book contains images printed on the fronts of pages only, so you don’t need to worry about bleed-through if you choose to use markers. As always, James hopes you enjoy coloring this book as much as he enjoyed creating the images!”
Morrison:
“Explore your creativity with the Flower Designs Coloring Book, Volume 1, by artist Jenean Morrison! Jenean has brought you 50 beautiful flower designs of varying styles and difficulty levels, so colorists of all ages will enjoy this book. The Flower Designs series contains images printed on the fronts of pages only, so you don’t need to worry about bleed-through if you choose to use markers. As always, Jenean hopes you enjoy coloring this book as much as she enjoyed creating the designs!”

Comment on Global Science Research Journals: A Dangerous Publisher, Keep Clear by Mulu
Dear Sir how dare you include academic publisher in your predatory list. I need justification.
Thanks

Comment on List of Predatory Publishers 2014 by Nsah Mala
Dear Author,
Can you kindly provide a recent list of (authentic journals) which charge no fees. That will be very helpful. Otherwise, pay to publish will keep pushing poor academics to publish in journals that are sometimes doubtful as you indicate here.
Thanks.

Comment on Hungarian OA Journal Charges According to Article Quality by JanosToth
When more than a week ago I asked Mr. Beall in a comment about this journal (inquiring about whether it is a standard practice or business model of OA journals to publish “top” and “high” priority research free of charges but charge for publishing medium or low priority papers), I was surprised when my comment didn’t pass moderation. Now I see why, and maybe it is better to cover this issue in a full blog post.

Janos, thanks for your understanding; your comment was published at the same time as the blog post.
Note that the email you used in the comment doesn’t work. And the name you used was different.

I’d guess this is like MDPI where invited articles get published free and submitted ones are charged for.

I also got the same mail from Reni Koen. My area is far from the scope of the journal.

Comment on Hungarian OA Journal Charges According to Article Quality by Marco van den Berg
“an incentive for the journal to accept and publish more weak papers” – or an incentive for authors to write strong papers? Half full or half empty?

Dear Mr Beall,
There appears to another publisher on the block that merits scrutiny. One of their journals is here:

What is your opinion?
Many thanks
