300-500 words.

Book reviews provide concise summaries and evaluations of current (published within the last 12 months) books related to learning space research or practices in higher education.

Authors are encouraged to cite other notable books related to the one being reviewed. Registered Journal of Learning Spaces readers are free to post comments and questions to these submissions.
