This review is from: Outwitting College Professors: A Practical Guide to Secrets of the System (Paperback)
Over twenty five years ago, Professor Janovy wrote a blurb for my first book: Get Off My Brain...Janovy commented:
"I've thought for twenty years about writing a book like this. It ought to be required reading for not only every college student, but also for every parent who's footing the bills!" At the risk of blatant logrolling...and after perusing Professor Janovy's new book, let me make two observations: (1) I am still deeply appreciative that an author of such note--Keith County Journal--would help launch the career of a beginning writer. (2) Although my book remains much funnier and more creative, Professor Janovy's tome spreads useful wisdom like the wildfire one can compare only to Professor Gompers' "chiseled grin and griseled chin."
