My book Peace Jobs: A Student’s Guide to Starting a Career Working for Peace was recently reviewed by Janet Gray of The College of New Jersey.  From the review:

“Peace Jobs is a book that peace educators have been waiting for. It captures the front edge of the field in its inclusive attention to differences of gender, sexuality, class, and race, and in its unpacking of peacebuilding as an expansive framework for education and career planning. The book will be of value to guidance counselors, career centers, academic advisors and mentors, peace teachers, and faculties planning the development or enhancement of programs of study.”
