How has the definition and notion of a job shifted in recent years? Howdoes one land in a particular job, and what causes one to flourish or flounder in it? Howdoes our job shape our sense of identity? And how does an identity built around work impact other facets of our lives?As communications and social media transform our world into a global village, readers are exposed to life and work in other places.Our awareness of countries and cultures far beyond home leads to a natural interest in them.
