This self-help book is designed for academics, from graduate students to
tenured faculty. Professor Donald Hall helps readers engage in an active
process of career management, goal setting, prioritization, and reflection
on the norms that constitute what he calls "academic selfhood." All
exhortations are coupled with clear, concrete, and practical strategies for
responding productively to the many uncertainties of academic life.
