New Careers for the 21st Century: Finding Your Role in the Global Renewal series.
These vocational-guidance books focus on careers expected to grow in the twenty-first century. The information contained in each volume is reasonably solid if dryly presented, and frequent sidebars and captioned photos expand the text. Middle and high school libraries may find the series' concentration on "green" jobs useful. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these New Careers for the 21st Century titles: Careers in Green Energy, Freelance & Technical Writers, Media in the 21st Century, Green Construction, Green Mechanics, Tomorrow's Transportation, and Environmental Science & Protection.
