A unique take on how to survive and thrive in the process your PhD, this is a book that stands out from the crowd of traditional PhD guides. captivating ... What I took away from reading this book, though, was just how universal the experiences of graduate students are.

He arms grad students (and potential grad students!) with information that will make their journey a bit easier, regardless of what field they're in.
