Companion website help
A step-by-step guide
Certain types of companion sites (sometimes called Lecturer Zones) require authorisation from Palgrave Macmillan Lecturer Services as they are restricted for use by either Lecturers teaching the subject or, for some sites, only by those Lecturers who have confirmed that they are using the book on their course. You will be notified by email when you are granted access to the site. You can then access the Companion website directly from the link in the email
