“This timely and important volume confronts that, offering honest and self-reflexive discussions of the material, emotional and affective demands and contradictions which early career academics face. … this book does the vitally important work of articulating the experiences of feminist early career researchers, and as such propels the conversation forward.” (Elizabeth Ablett, Sociology, Vol. 52 (1), 2018)
