                       Love Your Job!
        Loving the Job You Have or Finding a Job You Love
            By Dr. Paul Powers, with Deborah Russell
             210 pages, ISBN: 1-56592-036-8, $12.95 (US)

We have just published the first careers guide for people who don't want to
or can't change their jobs, but who are dissatisfied with at least one
aspect of it.  While Love Your Job! is a departure from our technical
books, editorially it fits very well within our desire to publish
information that helps people in pain.  As with our other books, which
attempt to offer "over the shoulder" advise to people stuck on a program
or system, this book gives readers direct access to the advise of a
leading management consultant who has had to deal with employee pain
resulting from corporate downsizing.   

There are many long, boring, and sometimes cynical books on how  to write a
resume, dress for success, and look the interviewer in the  eye; Love Your
Job! isn't one of them. Rather than showing readers how  to manipulate
their way into getting a better-paying job, it encourages  them to look
inside themselves at what is really important, and to  bring their best
selves to work, whatever it may be.

In a series of one-page reflections, anecdotes, and exercises,  Love Your
Job! can be read either from start to finish or in small  doses, when
readers need their spirits lifted. The book contains four  sections, as
well as an introduction and resource list:

- What does it mean to love your job? Reflections on what work 
  means to you and what's important in a job.
- Can you keep loving your job? Solid advice and motivational
  exercises that will help you develop the skills and the courage 
  to make changes in the job you're in.
- What if you don't have a job you love? Practical and
  inspirational hints for looking at your skills, meeting people
  who can help you, and overcoming your fear of change.
- Is there life outside your job? Reflections on how you can find
  time for your families and communities, as well as your job.

Our publishing Love Your Job! does not signal a departure from our
commitment to technical book publishing.  Rather, it is an 
acknowledgement that we not only bring our intellect and talents to work, 
we bring all of ourselves and the lives that impact us outside of work.
