Oxformed: A Journey Through Oxford

by Shiva Amiri, Hammad A. Khan

OXFORMED is a bold and realistic portrayal of two graduate students’ journeys in pursuit of their doctoral degrees (DPhils) at the University of Oxford. This book reveals the highs and lows of attending one of the oldest universities in the world during a politically and socially tumultuous first few years of the new millennium. The story is told through the authors’ personal experiences as they convey the psychological, social, political, and emotional events which influenced and formed who they are today and why and how Oxford changed their world. With the book’s undercurrent being that of their growing friendship, Oxformed shares their tale of adventure and struggle, as well as those of many colourful friends, acquaintances, colleagues, and places which made their years at Oxford unforgettable and something they felt they needed to share.
