Some scholars are highly productive. They break new ground and do it again and again. Their names and ideas are ubiquitous in scientific journals and scholarly books. They scoff at 'publish or perish.' To them, it's 'publish and flourish.' But how are they so productive, publishing hundreds of powerful works over their careers? Most graduate students, junior faculty, and even senior faculty have no idea. The methods of the productive are rarely taught and remain a hidden-curriculum. Kenneth A. Kiewra interviewed dozens of productive scholars to uncover the hidden curriculum of scholarly success. Be a More Productive Scholar now reveals those productivity stories and methods by dispensing more than 100 pointers for enhancing professional development and boosting scholarly productivity. Graduate students to seasoned scholars can benefit from this career-guiding advice.
