Sternberg offers a roadmap of sorts for those beginning their academic careers in the field of psychology. It tackles the obvious--teaching, research, obligations to one’s department--but also
delves into skills and traits that may not be so easily won, such as networking, collaboration, and conflict resolution. Of special note is a chapter listing the twenty-one mistakes new faculty
members make. The material is conveniently divided by subject and area, and is a friendly, easy read. Annotation ©2017 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
