Industry Reviews

"The volume provides researchers with a wealth of insights into the challenges and risks they may face and offers strategies to manage or mitigate them. ... this will spark further discussion on the challenges researchers confront, prompting broader debate in academic institutions about addressing these risks' root causes rather than merely managing them individually." (Aysuda Koelemen, IQAS, International Quarterly for Asian Studies, Vol. 54 (4), 2023)
