these two positions ,(associate editor、assistant editor), while separate on the masthead, often have similar duties, which include writing, editing or assigning material for front-of-the-book or back-of-the-book departments and writing titles and subtitles.

上述句子中
front-of-the-book or back-of-the-book departments
是什么意思呢？

front of the book，一般简写 FoB，back of the book，BoB
这两个词组多数用在杂志社
说的就是杂志的前部分（如目录，封面等）和后部分（如后记，）
加上department就是说负责这些的部门

因为只是助理，还没能理杂志里重要的部分
