Editorial Reviews
Review
"After my Ph.D. I realized that although I enjoyed science, I felt that my skills might be better applied to enabling the application of science within a more commercial context. Reading the experiences of others in this book gave me the confidence to move into another area of work. After spending two years in university technology transfer, I now negotiate Strategic Alliances on behalf of Pfizer and use my scientific knowledge and experience on a day-to-day basis."
-Philip McGurk, Pfizer, California, U.S.A.

Kevin Ayelsworth, Ph.D., Founder of the Young Scientists' Network and Co-author of Rethinking Science as a Career
"This book is a must-read for anyone pursuing a degree in science. The detailed and honest case studies provide precisely the kind of career guidance that scientists-in-training desperately need, but cannot find at most colleges and universities." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
