Description
Summary:IJRR's "Book Talks" are comparable to traditional book reviews. However, instead of a unidirectional “evaluation,” this is a space for constructive and collegial dialogue between scholars with similar expertise. In each Book Talk, a reviewer responds to a recently-published book, providing a brief synopsis along with a set of critical/collaborative questions or comments, much like a letter between colleagues. Unlike most book reviews, the book's author has a chance to reply.
