I bought this book for my nephew who is a high school junior and all about sports. He's not sure exactly what he's looking for in terms of a career but he knows he has to be active. This book gave him some wonderful options, complete with stories from various professionals about daily life in their field. Now he's able to consider some of these options as he looks at colleges. Excellent comprehensive resource for young people.
Ordered this book for my son at college. It arrived in good condition and in time. Again only putting this in as there is now a requirement to fill a word quota
I had to get this book for a class I was taking. if you're considering this as a guide for career options, you'll probably be pleased. It covers the basics thoroughly without getting too in-depth. Offers info as to what institutions and certifications are involved in different careers, and also gives a realistic view of the lifestyle one is choosing once they enter each field.
Versatile and a great resource for my library.
