Work and Integrity: The Crisis and Promise of Professionalism in America, 2nd Edition

The second edition of Work and Integrity, a substantially revised edition of a book by Carnegie Senior Scholar William M. Sullivan, provides a rich and penetrating way to think about the multifaceted yet interdependent challenges of educating professionals for our time, and draws together themes and findings from Carnegie’s Preparation for the Professions Program, comparative studies of education for law, engineering, the clergy, medicine, and nursing. Sullivan notes that in today’s environment of unrelenting economic pressure, in which the professional model of good work has come under increasing strain, the professions need their educational centers more than ever as resources and as rallying-points for renewal.
