This text for future vocational psychologists and career counselors not only surveys theories, practices and the counselor’s role in career development, it also calls for the transformation of
the field to keep current with the changing place of work in people’s lives. González (U. of Texas, El Paso) and Peterson (Our Lady of the Lake U.) emphasize multiculturalism and diversity
throughout the volume as they discuss the influence of the global economy and the corporate climate on work. Case studies and practical applications are interpolated in the discussions.
Important terms are highlighted and defined in the appended glossary. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
