Latest review

First review round: 16.0 weeks. Overall rating: 5 (excellent). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
This has been the toughest but also most rewarding review process we have ever gone through (with an experience of more than 70 peer-reviewed articles together and a journal editor on board). The quality of the reviews was remarkable. We were forced to think further, broader, deeper, and again. We came out of the process exhausted, but extremly satisfied. Academic collegiality at its best.
