About this ebook
Philosopher Steven M. Cahn, the author of numerous works about higher education, here offers his most recent thoughts about life in academia. Among the issues he discusses are building a professorial career, motivating one’s students, making strong faculty appointments, choosing effective administrators, and maintaining a commitment to academic ethics. His approach is principled and practical, his writing clear and concise, his illustrations realistic and illuminating. The book is at once a mirror of the academic world as it is and a map to what it should be.
