Dear Tymofii,

This is very common= problem with many journal editors, recently I had similar experience with = POLYMER(Elsevier), where that one reviewer even didn't understand our w= ork and finally same journal published same paper when I resubmitted as fre= sh submission again. So, I will suggest you to go for another better journa= l.
Best of luck,

Dear CCLers,

I'd highly appreciate you sharing your= experience with
publishing in Wiley's Journal of Computational Chem= istry.
Recently we received a decision letter from this journal
containing comments from a single reviewer only, and it

appeared = enough for the editor to declined our manuscript.

Unfortunately, we h= ave serious reasons to consider those

comments as being far from obje= ctive and unbiased.

Could someone please comment on whether it is typical
for such a journal= to send a manuscript to a single

reviewer? As far as I know, all res= pectable journals typically

rely on recommendations from=C2=A0 at lea= st (!) two reviewers. Am I wrong?


Thank you in advance!
With my best wishes

P.S. The manuscript deals with a novel implementation of a
classical= analys! is method to be used in conjunction with
ab initio program packages. It= contains both explanation
of computational procedures and a sample appl= ication.
Maybe we should consider some other journal to publish
such a work?
