While the topic of international careers and academia has received significant interest, the real contextual opportunities and barriers remain hidden by a dreadful reality across countries, contexts and international virtual spaces in greater numbers than ever before. This book integrates current debates of exposure to diversity and multiculturalism with different perspectives from authors with academic affiliations in 14 countries. It covers topics on intellectual, language and cultural diversity and offers a theory for the global value chain of academia and for the careers of international scientists. The aim is to achieve a holistic transformation with several possible courses of action useful to all involved in academia.

The book also provides an overview of international scientific careers across different career stages based on lived experiences. This type of international geographical mobility needs more than supportive host institutions and requires international networks and relationships of trust.

The book is a must-read for all involved in diversity and multiculturalism in higher education in different countries. It provides important insights to those engaged in academia and in international careers as scientists.

C. K. Noble, Ph.D. is a research professor and is affiliated with the Harvard Alumni of Education (HAEd). Professor Noble can be contacted at SparksReadings.com.
