Art of Mentoring
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Art of Mentoring series is an ongoing series of books published by Basic Books, beginning in 2001 with Alan Dershowitz's Letters to a Young Lawyer and Christopher Hitchens' Letters to a Young Contrarian. The books are all titled in the form "Letters to a Young ____", in the spirit of Rainer Maria Rilke's book Letters to a Young Poet. They are meant to be relatively short guides to various occupations or life paths for someone starting out in that field, from the point of view of an expert.
The series is the brainchild of John Donatich, who was the publisher at Basic Books from 1997 to 2003. [1]
