Exploring key issues in professional life such as how we define ourselves, how we learn as professionals, and what impact current changes and challenges are having on the nature of professional work, this book will offer a rounded selection of perspectives on professional life, as offered by some of the UK's most distinguished scholars in the field. Featuring contributions from leading academics and specialists, this book will be useful to those individuals who are embarking on or already engaging in work on a professional doctorate, while also appealing to a broader readership who are interested in the range of issues affecting professionals who work in education, in its most all-embracing sense.
