Synopsis:

As a long-time NASA engineer and astronautics professor, Jim Longuski watched first hand as gifted rocket scientists and students learned their way around the lab only to lose their way in the board room. Longuski decided to write what he calls a survival guide for rocket scientists. In this small book, Longuski uses humor and personal anecdotes to give engineers and scientists an edge in an industry in which one gets ahead as much on interpersonal skills as on technical merits. Longuski presents a reality that too many scientists and engineers ignore: Getting ahead and staying happy involves mastering interoffice politics. If you are a rocket scientist, or want to become a rocket scientist, or know and care about a rocket scientist-then this book is for you.
