Handbook of Meta-Research Edited by Alis Oancea, University of Oxford, Gemma Derrick, University of Bristol, Nuzha Nuseibeh, Independent Researcher and Writer and Xin Xu, University of Oxford, UK ‘This is a book populated by many of my favorite colleagues in the field of research on research. Here, they position key facets of our joint scholarly and real-world project of examining, and being part of, contemporary academia. The book is exemplary for doing multidisciplinary meta-research across the globe with professionalism and care. It provokes selfreflexivity because its authors are deeply engaged, rather than disinterested. The Handbook of Meta-Research is a book to cherish!’ – Sarah de Rijcke, Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS), Leiden University, the Netherlands Feb 2024 c 400 pp Hardback 978 1 83910 571 5 c £200.00 / c $280.00 eBook • Elgaronline Work Appropriation of LowWage Workers in the Service Sector Antonia Kupfer, Technical University of Dresden, Germany ‘What is the worth of a supermarket clerk?
