Review Restructuring the Employment Relationship / Clarendon Press:

This masterly new study presents the first large-scale empirical analysis of the changes in British work experiences and employment relationships between the 1980s and 1990s. Drawing on the Employment in Britain surveya national survey providing the richest source of evidence to date about individuals' experience of employmentit examines the impact of new technologies, the emergence of new management policies, the changing forms of employment contract, and the growth of job insecurity on people's experience of employment. The authors focus on the implications these developments have for the ways in which skills and work tasks have been changing, the nature of control at work, the degree of participation in decision-making, and the flexibility demanded at work. They assess whether there has been a tendency towards either a polarization or convergence of employment experiences between men and women, and between occupational classes. They offer fresh insight into how the changing quality of work in recent years has affected employee's involvement in their jobs and organizations, the stress they experience at work, and the propensity for absenteeism and staff turnover. While the study provides strong evidence of a marked trend towards upskilling, the authors take issue with the argument that a new type of employment relationship is emerging, arguing instead that the restructuring of the employment relationship has, in fact, reinforced traditional lines of division in the workforce.

Review Learning, Practicing and Living the New Careering: A Twenty-First Century Approach / Taylor & Francis:

Classic career counseling models have focused almost entirely on practical methods with little attention to the feeling aspect of the career. In an attempt to move beyond these models, Anna Miller-Tiedeman presented New Careeringr, an innovative approach that advocates a theory of life, not job, as career. Miller-Tiedeman's model focuses on the career theory of the individual by addressing both the logical and emotional aspects of the career. New Careeringr is based on the principle of flow, and uses as its foundation ideas from a broad range of theories including, but not limited to, quantum physics, Bohm's notion of wholeness, and Self-Organizing Systems Theory. Learning, Practicing, and Living the New Careering presents a theoretical overview of conventional career counseling philosophies, then examines the New Careeringr model in comparison to these. This volume does not dismiss traditional career theories, but instead illustrates the symbiosis between conventional wisdom and personal reality. A concise explanation of Miller-Tiedeman's model is followed by case studies and discussion points through which counselors and counseling students will learn practical application of the theory of New Careeringr. This ground-breaking text is ideal for use in classes as it includes end-of-chapter questions, suggestions for stimulating class discussion, and ideas for homework projects. It is appropriate for beginning counselor education courses, as well as career classes in other disciplines. It is also of interest to career counselors and other mental health workers who address the challenges of transition.
