Career development - the processes that shape a person's career over his or her life - is a relatively new field of research in applied psychology. In A Quality of Life Approach to Career Development, Geoffrey S. Peruniak draws from philosophy, sociology, literature, anthropology, psychology, political science, and economics to form a new, holistic approach to career development that extends beyond paid work to include all aspects of life. Emphasizing that a person is a whole entity rather than a role or category, Peruniak also explores nature and the place of community in relation to career development theories. A highly original text with broad theoretical appeal to several disciplines, A Quality of Life Approach to Career Development also includes exercises and case studies. Most importantly, this book provides a new approach that will complement more specialized methods and serve as a foundation for further study in the field.

This text represents a complete revision and update that provides the reader with a comprehensive overview and introduction to the field of rehabilitation counseling and services but also has applicability to the growing field of community counseling. Part One, the introductory section, discusses and describes the basic foundations of the rehabilitative process. Part Two, the rehabilitation process, provides the reader with an insightful appreciation and understanding of the rehabilitation process. In Part Three, the counseling and psychosocial aspects of disability are traced from multiple points of view - both theoretical and practical - and psychodynamic, Adlerian, rational emotive, behavioral, and Gestalt perspectives are explored and examined. The final section discusses special topics in rehabilitation appropriate for an introductory textbook but more suitable for an in-depth examination. The book's revisions include, in part, a greatly expanded chapter on the foundations of rehabilitation as well as a new historical aspects chapter. Educational considerations have been expanded and incorporated into a chapter on the development of the rehabilitation counseling discipline. Material on the rehabilitation process and occupational analysis and placement has been reorganized and includes new material on job development and placement. New material has been included on counseling credentialing and substance use disabilities, and material on international and multicultural perspectives has been reorganized and updated. This outstanding text will be particularly useful in graduate introductory rehabilitation or community counseling courses and may be readily adaptable to undergraduate courses as well. Additionally, the book will be a very useful resource for rehabilitation or community counselor practitioners.

This second edition is a major revision and update of Rehabilitation and Disability: Psychosocial Case Studies. The role and function of the rehabilitation counselor is described relative to the principles and practices of case management in the vocational rehabilitation process. The first chapter describes landmark legislation that has ensured the human and civil rights of persons with disabilities. The author relates changes to those of the consumerism movement, as persons with disabilities move from passive recipients of services to active participants capable of steering their own future, choosing their jobs and environments. Assessment as a best practice has expanded from being agency-oriented to being person-oriented. In addition to the use of best practices, the author advocates the use of best values to serve as the decision-making foundation for the application of best practices. Values can be the standards that guide the entire rehabilitation service delivery process, including the formulation of objectives, the search for alternatives, and the choices among them. The goal is for the client to realize the American Dream. The first two parts of the text provide a person-based philosophy and a substantial knowledge base in case management, and the thirteen case studies in the third part allow the reader to investigate the use of best practices and best values in case management. An outstanding group of contributors was selected to author various chapters. Their collective achievements have included agency-executive leadership, university professorships and consultative activities at the state, national, and international levels. Each contributor, as well, has made significant scholarly contributions to the rehabilitation literature. While the text was developed primarily for use in graduate rehabilitation counseling programs, it has great utility for related academic programs in allied health, psychology, social sciences, and special education. The text, also, has practical value for in-service and short term training anywhere that the vocational rehabilitation process can be facilitated from a client-centered perspective.
