ABSTRACT

First published in 1993. This book looks at the stress of gay and lesbian workers within the work world, and for that reason alone deserves its place on a list of recommended mental health, psycho-social health readings. However, more than this major factor merits consideration. Issues that are core to the identity of any person must be examined from the particular position of the homosexual worker and career seeker, and include such fundamental concepts as fairness, self-esteem, economics, survival, the need and right to participate in the work force, and the need and right for a voice and basic identity in vocational systems.
