Review: I, unfortunatly, bought this book in a school store, and therefore paid too much, but the information contained within this book is well worth the expense. Abbott gives great advice about getting your career going in some unusual, "back door" ways that most students as well as artists have probobly never thought of. There is a long section of contacts, great ideas on funding and sponsorship, as well as some rather humbling advice when it comes to our field. Most of us want to start out in the world with a good job and a fairly well planned future, this book is a great tool for achieveing those goals, and a reliable source for new directions when all else fails.
