Mal,
Send them a summary (a couple of paragraphs) and see if they are interested.
If they bite, don't worry about following their typographic standards. I would
expect that, like most periodicals, they will reset your copy anyway. The same
goes for illustrations. They will tell you what they need for photographs but
as far as diagrams they will redraw them to their house style.
