Recensione:

'Bayne and Jinks have produced a tour de force of applied psychology in this book. This is an outstanding text and a must buy for undergraduates and masters students thinking about a career in psychology'
Professor Cary Cooper
Lancaster University

'This book is a major source of stimulating ideas and discussion at the highest level. It is the text for those who want to move beyond the basics of research into high quality professional quality research in all areas of psychology'
Dr. Dennis Howitt
Loughborough University

'The book is split into three parts, where parts 2 and 3 particularly stand out as being of practical use to the student wishing to make plans for a career or to understand what the various careers might entail. The authors should be applauded for writing coherent, engaging and readable accounts of areas of psychological specialism. I learned a lot about how other professionals train and about their professional focus, which was both refreshing and enlightening' (Simon Duff)
