Reviews

' This book presents a welcome addition to the professional literature, covering an area that certainly has not been covered to this depth previously. Raddon, formerly an information professional and a library educator, has teamed with three other contributors with strong information management backgrounds in writing this book. The authors aim to provide the reader with strategies for career management that are linked to personal choices and personality, so that work and lifestyle are complementary and productive rather than conflicting.'- The Australian Library Journal, May 2006
