She is the co-editor of a forthcoming volume titled Reading Violence and Trauma in Asia and the World. Terence Heng is Senior Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Liverpool. He is the author of four books, including Visual Methods in the Field (2016), Of Gods, Gifts and Ghosts: Spiritual Places in Urban Spaces (2020), and Diasporas, Weddings and the Trajectories of Ethnicity (2020).
