MEDIA REVIEWS

"It's pretty clear from the data that the future is bright in these areas, and that our contributions to science and applied work are continuing to increases." (American Psychological Association, 2 March 2011) "This book looks at all aspects of a psychology career from being an undergraduate major through the weighty choice of a career in neuropsychology and everything in between. This book would work well as a textbook for a career planning course or for an individual who is contemplating entering this field." (Suite101, August 2010)
