Description: "Young career scientists in psychology enter the field with plenty of formal, explicit knowledge about the field, says Sternberg, but too often--for example in his own case, he says--without the informal, implicit and often unspoken knowledge about organizing themselves and their resources in order to succeed in a challenging and competitive profession. For each of 101 and one half lessons, he sets out the lesson itself, how and where he learned it, why it is important, and one or more concrete examples of it.--Provided by publisher.
