Handbook of Career Development in Academic Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences is an essential guide to everything that they don't teach in traditional medical and psychiatric training about how to begin an academic career. Covering many aspects of early career development that the authors wish they had been told about when they started their own academic careers, this book is densely packed with practical information that every academic psychiatrist can use right away. The Handbook of Career Development in Academic Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences is both a training manual and a guide for academicians in the real world. Open to any page and you'll find an essential topic: preparing your curriculum vitae and interviewing; managing your time; understanding budgets; developing ethics skills; giving difficult feedback; teaching and writing test questions; publishing a manuscript; navigating the grant application process; and mentoring and networking-to name just a few. A unique teaching aid written for a broad audience, Handbook of Career Development in Academic Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, with helpful illustrations and extensive references, worksheets, and web resources, has earned its place among the core texts for faculty development courses in psychiatry, behavioral sciences, and medicine.

About the Author:
Dr. Roberts serves as Chairman and the Katharine Dexter McCormick and Stanley McCormick Memorial Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Stanford University School of Medicine.   

She is an internationally recognized scholar in bioethics, psychiatry, medicine, and medical education, and is identified as a foremost psychiatric ethicist in the United States.  Dr. Roberts has received extensive scientific peer-reviewed funding from the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Energy, and private foundations to perform empirical studies of modern ethical issues in research, clinical care, and health policy, with a particular focus on vulnerable and special populations.  Her work has led to advances in understanding of ethical aspects of physical and mental illness research, societal implications for genetic innovation, the role of stigma in health disparities, the impact of medical student and physician health issues, and optimal approaches to fostering professionalism in medicine.  
 
Dr. Roberts has been the Editor-in-Chief for the journal Academic Psychiatry since 2002 and serves as an editorial board member and peer reviewer for many scientific and education journals.   Dr. Roberts was the first woman to be elected President of the American Association of Chairs of Departments of Psychiatry.  Dr. Roberts has received numerous awards for leadership, teaching, and science.
Review:

"This is an amazingly wonderful book that addresses so many pivotal points towards a successful career in academic psychiatry. Throughout all the major developmental steps in thinking about, beginning and nurturing an academic position, Roberts and Hilty, et al bring us the information that is not taught in traditional medical training, and then some. This terrific book will help save time and make the trip through academia a lot easier and probably a lot more fun!"-- "Michelle B. Riba, M.D., M.S., Professor of Psychiatry, University of Michigan"

"[The editors] have compiled a collection of concise, informative, and highly relevant chapters, authored by an impressive group of largely psychiatric scientists, scholars, and administrators. The book provides the reader with an invaluable manual for survival and advance ment as faculty in academic health centers, and although focused on psychiatrists, the book is applicable to psychologists and other behavioral scientists as well.... Every training director (psychiatry and psychology) should make this available to his or her graduates. Senior faculty members, especially senior psychologists, would be well advised to familiarize themselves with the knowledgeable and insightful observations provided in this volume."-- "PsycCRITIQUES", "June 28, 2006"

"After reading [ "Handbook of Career Development in Academic Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences"], many would probably agree that it should have been around years ago. It is filled with practical information, is well organized, and covers almost all major issues in career development in academic psychiatry. I would recommend it to every starting academician and to every resident contemplating an academic career. It should also belong to the library of every academic department of psychiatry (and perhaps other disciplines) and school of medicine, since it could serve as a guiding text in faculty development seminars and courses."-- "American Journal of Psychiatry", "August 2006"
