  4. Under the maximum word count, so there is room to expand
  5. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
  1. Reasonably good

  5. Key citations are well used

  1. Excellent summary and conclusion
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    2. Develop some of the bullet point statements into full sentences and paragraphs
    3. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections
    2. Consider using sub-headings
  3. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some/many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
