- Brings together, for the first time, expert researchers from the three primary areas of mentoring: workplace, academy, and community
- Leading scholars provide critical analysis on important literature concerning theoretical approaches and methodological issues in the field
- Final section presents an integrated perspective on mentoring relationships and projects a future agenda for the field
"I have no doubt that those interested in youth mentoring would find the specific chapters useful. It is then an extra bonus to have available similarly fine articles on mentoring of students in academia and mentoring in the workplace." (The Prevention Researcher, 1 December 2011)
"This book provides up-to-date review and synthesis of research and theory on the antecedents, correlates, and consequences of mentoring. It also provides critical analyses of the literature and then reflection on the appraisals. This account organizes and critiques the mentoring literature in a way that identifies key issues and prompts heuristic hypotheses." (Neopoprealism Journal, 24 November 2011)
