Writing for Publication part 2

We are deeply indebted to our colleagues, ex-colleagues, friends, enemies, students and past students, old lovers, past and present combatants and allies and all the managers that we have ever worked with for being such a rich source of illustration and inspiration! | Introducing the Academic s Support Kit Before you really get into this book you might like to know a bit more about the authors. Rebecca Boden from England is professor of accounting at the University of the West of England. She did her PhD in politics immediately after graduating from her first degree which was in history and politics . She worked as a contract researcher in a university before the shortage of academic jobs in 1980s Britain forced her into the civil service as a tax inspector. She subsequently launched herself on to the unsuspecting world of business schools as an accounting academic. Debbie Epstein a South African is a professor in the School of Social Sciences at Cardiff University. She did her first degree in history and then worked briefly as a research assistant on the philosopher Jeremy Bentham s papers. Unable to read his handwriting she went on to teach children in a variety of schools for seventeen years. She returned to university to start her PhD in her forties and has been an academic ever since. Jane Kenway an Australian is professor of education at Monash University with particular responsibility for developing the field of global cultural studies in education. She was a schoolteacher and outrageous hedonist before she became an academic. But since becoming an academic she has also become a workaholic which has done wonders for her social life because fortunately all her friends are similarly inclined. Nonetheless she is interested in helping nextgeneration academics to be differently pleasured with regard to their work and their lives. As you can see we have all had chequered careers which are far from the stereotype of the lifelong academic but that are actually fairly typical. What we have all had to do is to retread ourselves acquire new skills and learn to cope in very different environments. In our current jobs we all spend a lot of time helping and supporting people who are learning to be or developing themselves as academics.
