An invaluable resource that provides multiple perspectives on the issues most pressing to students and academics as they consider all aspects of their career and how to ideally carve out one's own path. These are the topics that are routinely covered in lab meetings and hallway conversations but have never been formalized in this manner until now. Absolutely essential for anyone interested in pursuing or better understanding the ins and outs of a successful career as a Psychologist or Neuroscientist. A text of this type has been needed for some time and this is a resource I will be providing to all future trainees." -Michael Dodd, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Psychology, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, and Editor: Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics
