! [ o& d5 A; v5 ]% IScientific research is about discovering new things and applying them to improvements in life style for people and animals. But careers in science are now very demanding, requiring much more than a keen scientific mind and practical ability. If you are considering a career in research, have already embarked on your career and want to succeed, are uncertain which route to take, or advise, train or supervise scientists, this book should offer some helpful advice. It covers topics ranging from choosing a PhD or postdoctoral position, successful interviews and preparing your cv to managing your supervisor; how to give successful talks, publish high quality papers and get yourself known; and broad aspects of science which are so important today, including ethics and fraud, intellectual property and exploitation and disseminating science to the public. ; ?- E S0 ~) v8 @# p3 U x5 s9 K0 P+ j2 }4 d% D9 w7 b8 @" @# x( q5 a4 v7 v- }; f

我是在博士的最后一年读到这几本书的。对于第一本书，真是有一种相见恨晚的感觉，很多博士阶段的困惑和牢骚都迎刃而解。后两本书也让我很受启发，希望对大家的研究生学习有所帮助。欢迎补充。-%-89916-%--%-92471-%-
