Examining common assumptions and routines through the lens of critical theory, the authors question several aspects of graduate education, including the conception of graduate students as institutional capital; institutionalized prejudice based on age, gender, sexual orientation, race and class; and competing power and value systems.

Edited by Babinka (no credentials listed), this bibliography contains no introductory material stating how or why selections were made. Furthermore, though the book's title states "with indexes," there is in fact only one index; and this one index simply lists titles, providing very little help in accessing the book's contents. The citations are Library of Congress catalog records, printed about three to a page, and, inconsiderately, without font differentiation of the titles. Arrangement is in the following sections: general, websites, government and transportation, block, community, research, education, literature, arts and music, environment, agriculture, business and nonprofit, women, medicine and health, and international.
