Invited Session
Book reviews have a long history but have met with suspicion in academic circles for a while. In this talk, I will make the case for the importance of book reviews for scholars, particularly early-career scholars. I will focus on the pragmatic side by showing how early-career scholars can make book reviews a strategic component of their career and how they can write good book reviews. I will also share my views on what a book review editor looks for and what an author should avoid.
