Review:
"This text provides a useful and progressive perspective of the construct of work as applied to all aspects of people's lives. The authors have provided a good base for the understanding of the world of work and have expanded that to interventions to help persons of various needs achieve direction in their vocational lives. Student's in any counselor education program will benefit from this text."

"This text is unique, not only in covering a broad range of theoretical approaches - including family, systemic, and multicultural influences - but also in proposing a new, expanded, and social justice understanding of the role of work in people's lives for vocational psychology and career counseling."

"A well written and comprehensive career counseling text that infuses a multicultural and global perspective on work and career throughout the text."

"An excellent text that provides a broad yet scholarly review of career theories and applications. This text would be a good choice for a first graduate course in career counseling. It is thoroughly researched and documented; it is thoughtfully and carefully crafted, and it incorporates an impressive array of complex issues relevant to career counseling."
