A question: Is 'in the light of sb's words' used perfectly in this sentence? The sentence is out of context but it goes like this: These effects include processes of deforestation, the loss of natural areas such as places, in the light of P.S Bindraban., A.C Franke., D.O. Ferraro, C.M. Ghersa, L.A.P Lotz, A. Nepomuceno’s words, “in the northeast and northwest of Argentina” (2009, p.30) (...) There are many authors to name, but we cannot omit them...is there any other way of saying this sentence? Thanks a lot
