About Routledge
Routledge and its sister imprints CRC Press, Focal Press, and Taylor & Francis are part of Informa plc — together producing reference works across counseling, social sciences, language studies, engineering, and academic specialties. CRC Press's medical and clinical references (50 Landmark Papers series, surgical atlases) are board-prep staples. Routledge social-sciences titles dominate graduate-level reading lists. We source Routledge family titles directly from authorized US distribution.
How students use this book
NCE, CPCE, and state counseling licensure exams test across nine content areas — human growth, social/cultural, helping relationships, group work, career, assessment, research, and professional orientation. This title works best inside a multi-resource prep plan: a content review like Rosenthal's, a Q-bank, and audio review for commute time. Most successful candidates dedicate 8-12 weeks of focused review across all nine domains.
