Review: There is some good books and not so good books. This book is neighter. The intention of author a great innovative but the cases, application and examples are very limited. Additionally, the author always uses the application for explanation. The limited reference is only in educational areas, while I prefer to read a general idea or more in scientific research (see "A Ph.D. Is Not Enough : A Guide to Survival in Science" by Feibelman or "Tomorrow's Professor : Preparing for Academic Careers in Science and Engineering" by Reis). Therefore, this book is categorized as "not-so-good-book" for me. In contrast, my girlfriend in education school quite like this book. This book shows many reference to the referee journals including the statistics, e.g., acceptance rate, turn-over time, # article per year., etc. Therefore, this book is a "good-book" for education student, at least my friend. Well, since it's neighter one, I will give this book 3 stars then.
