Description

The first in-depth treatment of the school/work transition, this book raises the level of discussion above simple how to strategies.

Howard considers the values, choices, responsibilities, and challenges facing the student leaving college or graduate/professional school.

The transition from school to work entails a reconstruction of experience and of the self that marks the beginning of a crucial stage in the course of a life.

Besides shifts in the aims and values attached to learning for school and for work, there are commitments and costs involved in professional life that require special consideration if one is to avoid the hazards of burnout, narrowness, and the loss of cherished skills.

To survive personally and professionally in the new, ruthless economy, one needs to be highly adaptable and able to communicate well.

In this thought-provoking book Howard underscores the utility of a broad liberal education as a preparation for work.
