"Highlighting how career assessment and counseling is important for optimum well-being." according to Amazon Customer. This book seeks to provide several different benefits. First, Dr. Sharf seeks to explain the history of career counseling and the differences/similarities with clinical mental health counseling. Second, Sharf breaks down different career theories by chapter, which is extremel. Not gripping reading. I had to read this book for a required class. I cannot recommend it unless you are really, really interested in doing only career counseling. The book is probably adequate, but most of the theories it describes are repetitive and not exactly rocket science. I doubt their usef. Overpriced, dull and redundant I think this may be the most bland textbook I've come across in my graduate studies. Redundant and flat, this is a text I'd never refer to and the cost was outrageous! I'll be looking for a better book to add to my professional library as a resource!
