Recenzje

"The book presents an overview of the field of professions and professionalism which is succinct yet remarkably comprehensive. As such, it offers a much-needed entry-point for researchers and students which should demystify the field and also, I hope, provoke further research in an era when knowledge and expertise face unprecedented challenges" Damian E Hodgson, University of Sheffield, UK
