They painstakingly describe the virtual A to Z of career-building strategies in meticulous detail about "how to think," "what to think," and "why to think" and ultimately exchange their learned strategies toward a more rewarding academic life. Within each of the 11 chapters these authors share their experience, knowledge, and wisdom.
