I have lately made a book review for Journal of Applied Learning & Teaching- a Scopus-indexed journal.
Wars not only kill people in trenches but also erase nations’ existence by destroying educational gains. Louis Yako’s book Bullets in envelopes: Iraqi academics in exile, which was published in 2021, is a very critical book showing the enormous impact of the invasion of Iraq by the U.S. on higher education and academics. The destruction and restructuring of Iraqi academia can be seen as a political strategy to shape society, and Yako’s book reveals this picture clearly and vividly.
For the review you can visit the webpage of JALT.
