Since its early American inception in the mid 19th century, the
Ph.D. has been the hallmark of American higher education. It has
become the capstone for a multitude of disciplines and professional
education, overshadowing other degree programs. Yet it has not been
above controversy. Recent discussions of its purpose vis-a-vis
teaching and professional endeavors have continued a long tradition
of examining graduate education. This selective, annotated
bibliography offers an entree to the Ph.D. phenomenon. Of interest
to administrators, educators, and scholars, the volume covers the
history, research, and evolution of the Ph.D. An introductory essay
offers an historical overview and sets the degree within the
context of contemporary research. The following chapters provide
annotated entries on publications covering issues surrounding the
Ph.D. Organized into four sections, the entries cover the
controversies, critical studies, and purpose of the Ph.D. degree
for science and technology, the social sciences, and the humanities
disciplines. The entries introduce such topics as acculturation,
completion rates, funding, requirements, and structure of the Ph.D.
