This book is written for senior faculty and administrators at resource-strapped institutions who are not trained in higher education administration who are concerned with mentoring. It is written in accessible, nontechnical language but references the more scholarly and statistically based journals and books for those who wish to dig deeper. The book covers the mentoring of junior faculty on the tenure-track line through senior faculty and include coverage of non-tenure track faculty, faculty in hostile departments, and faculty who face additional issues of discrimination. Chapters begin with a fictionalized case study to explore common problems and presents pragmatic solutions that often cost little money and rely instead on an investment of time.
