Book excerpt: A thought-provoking guide to a spiritual approach to daily work."" --'Booklist' This compelling analysis of the spiritual dimensions of work confronts the alienation and lack of fulfillment that exist in epidemic proportions in the workplace. Haughey delves into the question of the lasting value of work, and focuses on the relationship between work and justice, work and grace, and work and spirit. Haughey's book is a quiet energizer, perfect for the person who is bored with work, angry at his or her colleagues or disillusioned with the meaning of work."" --'America' John C.
