About this book
Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:
“The Portable Mentor (2013) was well written and easy to understand for anyone with an undergraduate level of education. … this is certainly a resource I will point students to when they are considering a career in psychology. It would be a shame if it wasn’t available at your local library. If you are looking for a present for your high school student or graduate school student, this might be it!” (Courageous Psychology, karenlipsychology.blogspot.com.au, May, 2013)Editors and Affiliations
