Trade Review
"By addressing students directly, drawing on his experience and observations in academic life, Andrew Roberts provides an accessible and credible account of how to make college a valuable experience educationally." - Michael McPherson, president of the Spencer Foundation, former president of Macalester College "Andrew Roberts has a light touch, gives students excellent advice, and writes in a direct, engaging style. What I find particularly interesting is the perspective from which he counsels students, that of a serious academic fully dedicated to his profession despite what he sees as its flaws." - Michael Koppisch, Michigan State University"
