My experience has been positive -- I think the reviews I have done have effected some changes One notable example occurred a few years ago where I reviewed a text for advanced grad students in clinical/counseling psych and strongly recommended a chapter on internships to boost the marketability of the book Not long after I sent in my review, I received a letter from the editor asking me if I was interested in writing such a chapter :) ************************************************************************ Jim Guinee, Ph.D. Director of Training & Adjunct Professor University of Central Arkansas Counseling Center 313 Bernard Hall Conway, AR 72035 USA "Too many of us have a Christian vocabulary rather than a Christian experience.
