Thanks for the book recommendation - I hadn't come across that one and it look interestingly theoretical (which most books on the PhD aren't). There has been one published here recently called 'Doctorates Downunder', an edited book, most of which is in the 'how to get it done' genre. Useful, but not an a very complex conceptual plane.
Have you seen the materials from the "re-envisioning the Ph.D" project? http://www.grad.washington.edu/envision/ Great work, that. --elijah
