FWIW, the actual course requirements for a PhD vary with the school and the program. I needed about two year's worth of courses. Solomon's program calls for more coursework than that. My godson is doing a PhD in neurobiology at Harvard, which was only one year of coursework; he's in his second year of the program now and will present his thesis proposal this month, which I find incredibly quick.
Similarly, whether or not there's a Masters before the PhD varies with the field. Some subjects seem to require it, others don't. In some fields, it appears that the Masters is what you get if you don't pass your PhD comps and wash out.
I've actually been stunned by the amount of variation I've seen with the kids we know who are doing graduate work.
