I do not know the exact details about their peer review process but I
know that they offer p.r., if the authors of a submitted volume request
it, because I recently reviewed a book for them. They also allow for
open peer review, if both the authors and the reviewers approve of this
mode. In the case of our collected volume we took care of the double
blind peer review process for the individual articles ourselves.
If you have further questions please simply get in touch with them. In
my experience, they are quite ready to help.
Best,
Vitus
