Every clinician experiences moments when ‘they don't know what to do’. Modern medicine is increasingly complex and training has also become more complicated. The days of ‘see one, do one, teach one’ are over. Yet, both younger clinicians and senior practitioners describe uncertainty as one of the most challenging and stressful aspects of clinical work. If uncertainty is uncomfortable or threatening to individual practitioners, it also provides complex educational challenges. How can we learn to cope with uncertainty effectively ourselves? How can we teach others to understand and manage uncertainty?

This wonderful book suggests that seeking mentoring should not be seen as a weakness, but rather as an essential part of professional learning and development. It shows how we can all be mentors, and how we can all benefit from being mentored. It argues persuasively that mentoring should not be an optional extra, but rather should become an integrated and fundamental part of medical practice. The author's work, easy to read, packed with practical case examples, and ordered in an accessible way, demystifies mentoring and shows us that it can be done pretty much by anyone, for anyone. Justin Amery, in the foreword to the book
