Review: "The book discusses what mentoring is, and why it is now so much in demand. Drawing upon two decades of extensive research and practice, and using a variety of illuminating case studies, the authors offer a stimulating and thorough examination of mentoring, integrating theory and practice throughout. It will be invaluable to anyone involved in the teaching of adults in further and higher education, as well as university administrators, programme directors, and development and training officers."--BOOK JACKET.
