Reviews
This volume's main strength lies in its focus on the discursive practices of Serbian and Montenegrin academics, whose writing norms have been rarely addressed in previous research. Arguing from an intercultural perspective, the book offers several insightful observations on the interfaces between national and international academic cultures, which presents a timely contribution to the growing body of research on academic genres. Another merit of the volume comes from its comprehensive perspectives, with both macro and micro aspects of academic discourse being thoroughly examined.
