READER REVIEWS 'a great book - very comprehensive, covers issues that are not covered in other books, such as the relationship with your supervisor.' 'a most excellent find! As friendly as the book is, it's honest and uncompromising, I appreciate that - Apart from hair-tearing PhD students, I'd also recommend the book to prospective PhD students.' ' Hugely reassuring...I strongly recommend this book to anyone considering a PhD and also to current PhD students...I wish I had read this book before I started travelling the PhD path.' www.findaphd.com.
