Poet and journalist Marcia Menter, who has written and edited for Glamour, Mademoiselle, Redbook, and Self, has created a diminutive but insightful and surprisingly substantive guide for turning work life into a spiritual practice. Menter takes a fresh look at key elements of the workplace—office politics, workload, time management, self-doubt and self-recrimination, remuneration, burnout, and so on—and elicits from each a lesson for enhancing one’s performance and, more important, promoting one’s spiritual growth.
