So, you're thinking about doing a PhD. Or, you've been accepted into your PhD program. Congrats! It's a big accomplishment. I guess, you would've done your homework beforehand and realized that 85% of PhD students don't get their PhDs, right? It's a harsh stat, but a reality nonetheless. 5 in 6 students who walk in, don't walk out with the title "Dr." Do you want to make sure that you get your PhD? You can. You can set yourself up for success within the first 12 months, if you know how. This book goes through how to set yourself up for success within the first 12 months of your PhD. It initially goes through the well-known items, such as planning (which everyone knows). But it goes into topics that aren't covered by anyone else - the political side of your PhD, which typically dominates your PhD. The political side determines whether you get your PhD, or not. These political items aren't covered for one simple reason, they don't want you to know them. They're too effective. Using these political items gives you the power in your PhD, and ensures that you'll pass.

One of the best kept secrets about doctoral education is the large proportion of students who are mid-career. Yet, few researchers focus on these students. Daring the Doctorate is the first major work to address the life circumstances of these mid-career doctoral students. Based on the experiences of fifteen successful graduates, the author develops perspectives and frameworks to assist those contemplating doctoral study, as well as faculty and staff advisors and even recent graduates who wonder whether only they found the road to graduation so complicated. In this thorough guide to the doctorate degree, study participants speak freely about their reasons for pursuing doctorates, as well as the financial, personal, intellectual and professional challenges they faced. Their circumstances reflect a variety of situations: single, married and partnered; some mothers and fathers; male and female; some as young as twenty-six, and others approaching their middle ages. We learn about their passion for learning, about guilt and isolation, the time pressures, the exhilaration, and key supporting roles played by family, peers, advisors, mentors, Wizards and Guardians. We come away with a profound appreciation of the courage and tenacity of these talented individuals and a better understanding of how to help others like them succeed.

"This book explores what a PhD is and the challenges and rewards of completing this journey. There is no one way to complete a doctorate but there are a number of wrong ways, like having your ego flattered into it or because you can't think of what else you would like to do. This book is about what is like to submit yourself to the process of doing a doctorate. It is about how is feels to be a research student; the elation, the guilt, the isolation, the self-doubt, the loneliness. It also describes the practical issues - such as choosing a topic, finding funding, writing a research proposal, different methods of research, the literature review, academic writing, the question of 'truth' in research, the relationship between student and supervisor, maintaining a clear focus, and the viva examination." Lucy Russell Accessible and well-written, this guide will be invaluable reading for anyone thinking about, embarking on or completing a PhD.
