Recenzje

'As someone who would never have pursued a career in psychology without the guidance of mentors, I am grateful to Mitch Prinstein for the essential guidance in the third edition of The Portable Mentor. Comprehensive, clear, and engaging, this book offers advice and support to individuals, beginning with when one is first considering graduate training in psychology to one's career in various roles of psychologists. The contributors present diverse perspectives and lived experiences. This edited volume is clearly a work reflecting each of the contributor's dedication to mentoring. Do young people a favor by recommending this book to them.'
