Recenzje

"…I strongly recommend this book to anyone involved with psychology organizations: The conversation has started. It is too much to expect the answers to emerge immediately, but the questions are beginning to crystalize. Because the book focuses on the questions rather than the answers, it might be fairest to say that this work’s value is in setting the stage and the context for further discussion...All of the chapters are interesting and cover information about educational curricula, training requirements for practice, and quality control by the professional bodies or by state educational audits. Thus, for anyone involved in psychology’s future as a globally shared enterprise there is much to stimulate our working together."- Ian M.Evans, PsycCRITQUES, October 27, 2014, Vol.59, No.43, Article 4
