THE
LIFE@WORK 50

September/October
1999
Vol.2, No.5

The
Life@Work journal convened a panel of experts,
asking them to rank their 25 favorite books on
the subject of faith and work.
Panelists
were given a list of more than 100 books, but
were allowed to vote on others as well. From their
votes, the top 50 were determined.
