Summary "The twenty-one all new chapters in this second edition poignantly review a variety of different careers designed for individuals undecided about their future, beyond a desire or "a calling" to work with people, and provide excellent cutting edge information about a large variety of human service professions and occupations, wrapped in the authors' 'real passion for helping people.' ... This book, designed as a textbook for undergraduate courses in human services, is a 'must read' for the young-and-eager or the mature second-careerist future human service professional. The thoughtful, knowledgeable, practical and cutting-edge approaches in this book provide an invaluable point of embarkation on anyone's journey to a personally and professionally rewarding career as a human service professional."--Provided by publisher
