"Anyone who is involved in doctoral education, from student to faculty to administrators to those who support doctoral students, needs to read this book. While many books have centered on the dissertation, there are literally no books that take a much-needed reflective look at the entire journey. Martin and Bharwani provide insights that expose the light and shadow sides of the doctoral experience. Most importantly, they share critical lessons and action steps that will make the doctoral experience more meaningful for all."
