The Independent Expatriate: Academics Abroad: A Study of Expatriate Academics in New Zealand, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates and Turkey

摘要

With the release of The Independent Expatriate: Academics Abroad, Julia Richardson has clearly established herself as the leading researcher investigating expatriate academics, if not the wider field of expatriation from an experiential perspective. As she has been an expatriate in a number of countries, her personal connection to the topic is obvious and one she shares as a main driver behind this book. Her own lived experience and discussions with other expatriate academics have provided her with a unique perspective from which to pursue this topic and realize the gap in the literature, which this book ably fills.
