I am a Biochemistry/Molecular Biology PhD who has made transition into one of the "alternative careers". Three years before I made the transition, I bought and read the book.

I found the book generally helpful. But at the time when I was struggling with my career decision, I found the book inadequate. The book tried to cover too many areas of professions. It includes not only life scientists, but also medical doctors, accountants, engineers, psychologists, and even English-major... These people, like me, all want to make career changes. This book is too general. It does not give me enough information for my particular case. In reality, there are "alternative career" opportunities which are open to an English major but closed to a Biochemist.

I would rank this book along with other great resources like Vaultreports.com as the best places for people in the sciences looking for a satisfying career.

best for professionals and pre-professionals...parachute for scientists, doctors, engineers, and lawyers. really on target
