Now totalling 20 publications, Routledge's ‘Insider Guides to Success in Academia’ series offer support and practical advice to doctoral students and early career researchers. Covering the topics that really matter, but which often get overlooked, this indispensable series provides practical and realistic guidance to address many of the needs and challenges of trying to operate, and remain, in academia.

With input from DEAR centre staff and colleagues featuring throughout the series, including "Doing Doctoral Research at a DistanceLink opens in a new window", "Thriving in Part-Time Doctoral StudyLink opens in a new window" & "Making Sense of Academic ConferencesLink opens in a new window", these pocket guides fill specific and significant gaps in current literature. Each book offers insider perspectives on the often implicit rules of the game – the things you need to know but usually aren’t told by institutional postgraduate support, researcher development units or supervisors - and will address a practical topic that is key to career progression. Essential reading for doctoral students, early career researchers, supervisors, mentors or anyone looking to launch or maintain their career in academia.
