"The Doctoral Journey: International Educationalist Perspectives assembles a collective narrative related to the doctoral journey of recent graduates in the field of education. Clearly, the doctoral journey is not a linear process but rather a lattice of ever-evolving professional and personal relationships, experiences, perspectives, and insights. From early on when considering whether or not to apply to a programme, to deciding on an institution and supervisor, to delving into the related literature, to data collection and analyses, to closing in on the defence, to results dissemination, and everything in between and beyond, the doctoral journey presents incalculable obstacles that can be, and have been, overcome by doctoral graduates-including the contributors in this inspirationally-sparked collective narrative. Contributors are: Trudy Cardinal, Philip Wing Keung Chan, José da Costa, Alison Egan, Janet McConaghy, June McConaghy, Kelsey McEntyre, Sammy M. Mutisya, Christina A. Parker, Carla L. Peck, Colin G. Pennington, Kathleen Pithouse-Morgan, Edgar Schmidt, and Pearl Subban"--

"This book will explain the doctoral journey, the researcher's orientation, personal challenges, and process pathway for successful completion. This book will examine doctoral studies' motivation, build a compelling research argument, decide how to structure a thesis/dissertation, remain on task, and expedite the process while maintaining high-quality standards. This book will explain how a Ph.D. candidate should start the process, stay focused on the tasks, separate passion from the process, understand the challenges, and overcome them. We will explain how a Ph.D. mindset should adjust to the processes rather than entrenched in a passion that may not match the process's realities. Globally, the need for completing doctoral studies is growing. However, prospective doctoral candidates do not always have access to experienced academe who can aid and provide guidance. This book will include the necessary thought process and supportive guidelines along the doctoral journey enabling the delivery of a doctoral thesis/dissertation with more ease. Ph.D. candidates will use the book for its theoretical and practical insights, explaining each challenge along the doctoral journey with relevant examples. The book will have a fourfold purpose, a thought initiator, a process guide, practical support, and a reference book on specific parts of the doctoral journey. It also includes essays of successful Ph.D. candidates and lessons learned"--
