Rezensionen

Robyn Barnacle, School of Graduate Research, RMIT University

Overall I believe this book proposal has merit. The editors - particularly Susan Carter - and many of the contributors are well known within certain circles within Australian and New Zealand and - to a lesser extent - UK. However, the inclusion of Anthony Pare may lead to interest in Canada and Pat Thomson may lead to greater interest in the UK.

Terry D Evans Emeritus Professor at Deakin University

The editors are very experienced at this sort of editorial work on doctoral processes and have earned international reputations for their efforts. A major strength is that the topic is enduring and important. Given the ways that supervisory preparation and development is undertaken in universities, it is debatable whether a specific book would be in broad demand; it is more likely that specific chapters would be copied and used for supervisor workshops, courses etc.
