Appendices
The module that I suggested this book to students to is called Personal and Emloyability Skills Development. The students come from a wide range of different backgrounds and they want to go on to do a variety of different things. Previously I have found it difficult to suggest a book to them when asked that would be suitable for them all, but many of the students could get at least something out of this. I personally liked the examples and activities given, which I discussed with my students at times.
