In a time of major economic, social, and cultural transformation there is need for a new paradigm of career development and change. The concept of life design provides an approach to help people develop the necessary reflexivity so that they can survive and thrive in a rapidly changing world. In this book an impressive array of scholars outline, in a very readable format, a comprehensive view of both the theory and practice of life design as applied across the life span. This is a book for the 21st century, a book that will provide stimulation for both academics and practitioners."; Norman Amundson, Professor of Counseling Psychology at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada; "This impressive book builds substantially on the work of the International Life Design group. It begins by explaining the theory and concepts that underpin the paradigm shift taking place in career counseling, and then grounds this in practice. The contributors are leading researchers in the field, and they provide rich and varied examples of life designing in careers work across different age groups, sectors, and cultural and social contexts. They engage with the discomforts of living in a neo-liberal world, emphasizing the need for more meaningful, thoughtful, and creative practices to benefit the lives of 'clients' and practitioners. An essential text.; Hazel Reid, PhD, Reader in Career Guidance & Counseling, Canterbury Christ Church University, Canterbury, UK; This book represents the substantial next stage in the journey of the life design approach to career development and counseling. It advances life design thinking and applications across the life span and to various social groups and provides readers with the understanding and the tools needed to apply the life design approach in research and practice. It is a particularly timely work in the context of changing social conditions."; Richard A. Young, Professor of Counseling Psychology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada;
