I refuse to sign a book chapter contract with Bloomsbury because of this weird predatory clause (see image). They said it was for typos and grammar errors, then said it would only include 10% new material! They were unwilling to negotiate and it looks to me like a way to get you to update the e/book ad infinitum. After confirming with them I was withdrawing cause of their well dodgy contract they are now auto-sending the contract every 3 days, arghhh! #AcademicPublishing #DodgyContracts
