One PhD is Not Enough  (Hardcover, Bikram Keshori Jena)

The book aims to promote the academic idea of making PhD studies more accessible and relevant to society. It strongly advocates for the concept of a 'Decolonising Ph.D.,' emphasizing the importance of centering indigenous perspectives in academia—addressing problems, methods, and connections—by reshaping career aspirations to address the concerns and needs of marginalized communities in the global south. It delves into the historical background of the PhD program, tracing its development, global reach, and involvement before highlighting pertinent issues within India. The book explores the balance between quality and quantity in academic pursuits, examines the everyday challenges of research, challenges the existing hierarchies within academia, and encourages constructive discussions on these matters.
