Review "Why wasnt this book available when I started out as a young businessman fifty years ago? It would have given me a much needed theology of the workplace at a time when the notion of having a calling to the workplace was considered a heresy!" - William E Diehl, author of Thank God Its Monday Details ISBN0802833985 Author R.
