Table of ContentsReviewsA lot of academics are going to find in this book just what they need to stimulate their own thinking and assessment of their career, whatever stage they're in. Everyone who has worked in an academic position knows what these problems are, sort of, but a large number of professors and scholars refuse to think about them or to consider, calmly and with some reference to realities, what they should do about them. Behind the Academic Curtain will help them sort out what's important to them . It provides a humane perspective on the insoluble dilemmas that inform a scholarly life. --Howard S. Becker, author of Writing for Social Scientists Author InformationFrank F. Furstenberg is the Zellerbach Family Professor of Sociology Emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania.
