Publisher Description:
"Early faculty, please read and add some years onto your life. I wish I had this companion when I began academia. It would have saved me from multiple bouts of heartburn. This text goes over what they do not tell you as a graduate student or post-doc. It echoes great advice given to me by senior colleagues whom I respect and trust, especially in regards to tenure, promotion, grant writing and balancing work with family."--Aaron Haines Ph.D., Certified Wildlife Biologist, Assistant Professor of Conservation Biology, Millersville University
