Twenty essays by anthropologists, economists, historians, philosophers, psychologists, and sociologists seek to identify the key skills and competencies individuals need for workplace success and social responsibility. In so doing, they consider the normative, theoretical, and conceptual foundations for defining such competencies; issues of autonomy and diversity receive particular attention. Business, labor, educational, and policy perspectives are also represented. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
