Academics
Your research and the publications that come out of it are undoubtedly important to you. They require an enormous investment of time, they define you as an academic, and they are what you are measured by in your institution and your field. Your career depends upon them in terms of your reputation amongst your peers, your ability to gain promotion and the contribution you make to your department and your institution. Academia is increasingly competitive in relation to publishing and research funding, and you will be up against the brightest and the best of your peers when you submit your monograph to the publisher or your application to the funder for consideration.
