Description

"This book, based on a large-scale research study, examines the lives of a large group of 'disaffected' young people, and considers the impact that involvement in a mentoring programme had on them. In doing so it fills a large gap, providing empirical evidence on the effectiveness of mentoring programmes, providing at the same time a vivid insight into the nature of such disaffection, the realities of contemporary social exclusion among young people and the experience and outcome of mentoring."  Read more... Abstract: In recent years increasing attention has been paid to issues of social exclusion and the problematic transition from youthful dependence to adult independence.  Read more... Content: Includes index and bibliographical references (p. 207-217).
