Proposes an active, learner-centred process of professional education emphasizing relationship and reflection. The book argues that teachers should make a direct connection between formal knowledge and its application to the uncertainties and ambiguities of practice, marrying science and art. Crucially, as models and mentors, teachers must exemplify in situ what they expect students to bring to their own practice.
