A Handbook for Evaluating Employment Opportunities in Science, 1996. One of the most difficult problems faced by any scientist is identifying an institutional environment conducive to career development and personal satisfaction.
Many questions arise when an employment offer is being considered.
Until now, an individual could only informally evaluate institutional atmosphere and working conditions and arrive at a personal answer. Expanded and updated in its second edition, this concise handbook draws upon the author's survey of more than 1,500 faculty and professional staff from research and teaching institutions across North America. It provides a rating system to judge the atmosphere, working conditions, and productivity of any academic or industrial environment. Objective Evaluation of the Academic Environment details a rating system to judge the working conditions and productivity of any academic or industrial environment.
