Table of Contents

Michael E. Long Sr., Little Rock Job Corps"I was surprised at its content for a small book. It is easy to read and understand I would recommend this book to others for the information it has." Ed Moore, York Technical College"The book is a good source of material for an introduction class. It contains just enough general topic material so that it can be used in a variety of occupations, but is easily affordable."
