What is a peer reviewer?

Most professionals in a specific field are invited by the Editor of  journals to conduct reviews. Reviewers play an essential part in science and in scholarly publishing. For more than 300 years, scientists and scholars have relied upon peer review to validate research, engage other specialists in the support of submitted work, and increase networking possibilities within specific specialist communities.
