• Sommario/riassunto: "This is a short, punchy book about the real professional life of an academic. It provides hard data on what academic jobs are like and who gets them; on how to succeed in graduate school; on how to find time to write, teach, and have a personal life; and on what a person might do if academia does not work out.
