Life-Work: A Career Guide for Idealists

Rating:
Summary: This book deserves more attention.
Review: As a midlife career-changer I've read many career-oriented books in the last couple of years. I found this one to be more helpful than most. I enjoyed the chapters on value clarification. The idea of "quieting" resonating with what I feel the need to do within myself. Also, Charland's emphasis on "venturing" is helpful in applying the insights gained through introspection. The real world examples were inspirational. The tone of the book was just right: authoritative without feeling heavy. It struck the correct light and lively tone, in my opinion. Overall I feel like this book deserves a larger audience it has likely so far received as the product of a relatively small publisher. Thanks to the author for his wisdom and guidance.
