Fostering a Positive Early Career Academic Environment IndexReviewsReviews for the first edition: This is an amazingly wonderful book that addresses so many pivotal points towards a successful career in academic psychiatry. Throughout all the major developmental steps in thinking about, beginning and nurturing an academic position, Roberts and Hilty, et al bring us the information that is not taught in traditional medical training, and then some. This terrific book will help save time and make the trip through academia a lot easier and probably a lot more fun!-Michelle B. Riba, M.D., M.S., Professor of Psychiatry, University of Michigan [The editors] have compiled a collection of concise, informative, and highly relevant chapters, authored by an impressive group of largely psychiatric scientists, scholars, and administrators. The book provides the reader with an invaluable manual for survival and advance ment as faculty in academic health centers, and although focused on psychiatrists, the book is applicable to psychologists and other behavioral scientists as well. . . . Every training director (psychiatry and psychology) should make this available to his or her graduates. Senior faculty members, especially senior psychologists, would be well advised to familiarize themselves with the knowledgeable and insightful observations provided in this volume.-PsycCRITIQUES, 8/1/2006 After reading [Handbook of Career Development in Academic Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences], many would probably agree that it should have been around years ago. It is filled with practical information, is well organized, and covers almost all major issues in career development in academic psychiatry. I would recommend it to every starting academician and to every resident contemplating an academic career. It should also belong to the library of every academic department of psychiatry (and perhaps other disciplines) and school of medicine, since it could serve as a guiding text in faculty development seminars and courses.-American Journal of Psychiatry, 8/1/2006 Reviews for the first edition: This is an amazingly wonderful book that addresses so many pivotal points towards a successful career in academic psychiatry.
