Good News about The Good News About Careers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Barbara Moses, Ph.D., has written an interesting to read, timely book about a topic which is close to anyone who works, lives with someone who works, or is just curious about the changing nature of work. This is a thoroughly enjoyable read. The style of writing should appeal to anyone, from those thinking about retiring soon, to those just entering the workforce. For managers who want to keep the status quo, this could be a potentially dangerous read for your employees. It could cause people to rethink their lives, and possibly leave their current position for a new one. I highly recommend this book for anyone considering a career change or who is just trying to know themselves a little (or a lot) better. JoEllen Morrison, MLS
