Chapters in edited volumes

If you have come this far, you must be really interested in my research.

Thank you for that.

I have so far authored over 56 chapters in edited volumes, some of them edited by myself. About a quarter of them have co-authors (half a dozen individuals).

A few of them have been translated and published in another language – mostly Spanish and Portuguese, but one in Chinese too.
