Based on the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook (the most widely used career book ever), this guidebook is ideal for helping young people explore careers. It groups together related job descriptions, making it easy to study job options based on interests. The text stresses the connection between school subjects and jobs and gives essential facts for evaluating and exploring careers of interest. New for this edition is an appendix of Web sites for learning even more about each job! The Young Person's Occupational Outlook Handbook is a must for libraries, classrooms, and career centers and an excellent first reference for studying career opportunities.
