'Michael Reynolds and Russ Vince are to be commended for moving the agenda on. This book gives a new impetus to thinking about reflection. It represents the new generation of work on reflection: beyond the individual to the wider purposes of groups and organizations. The editors have assembled a stimulating collection of examples to show how this approach to reflection can be promoted in a variety of ways in different settings.'
