Mentoring has become an important aspect of professional development in a wide variety of fields such as education engineering and business.

It includes chapters about mentoring in a variety of settings with varied populations to capture the essence of the experience.

The book should be of interest to those who want to foster the success of others through organizational mentoring intitiatives as well as to individuals who wish to partiicpate in mentoring endeavors as a mentor or mentee.
