Editorial Reviews

An inspirational, bulleted advice guide written for research students defining some of the problems and solutions in organization, writing, and job interviewing. The authors draw on their own experiences as researchers and supervisors in Britain, although the "tips" neatly apply to graduate students in the US as well covering such basics as stress reduction, teaching and lecturing, thesis presentation, delivering conference papers, and creating a curriculum vitae.
