About the Author
From Smithsonian: "'Native English speakers tend to assume that all important information is in English,' says Tatsuya Amano, a zoology researcher at the University of Cambridge. Amano, a native of Japan, has encountered this bias in his own work as a zoologist; publishing in English was essential for him to further his career. He has seen studies that have been overlooked by global reviews, presumably because they were only published in Japanese. When it comes to work about biodiversity and conservation, Amano says, much of the most important data is collected and published by researchers in the countries where exotic or endangered species live — not just the U.S. or England. This can lead to oversights of critical breakthroughs."
