June Personal Improvement Book Club This month's book is "The Common Table: Reflections and Meditations on Community and Spirituality in the Workplace" by John Cowan.DESCRIPTIONIn the Common Table the author continues his humanistic and personal exploration into the meaning of business and community, always alert to those aspects of work that provide a deeper and more profound sense of spirituality and meaning. With an uncanny ability to make connections among seemingly disparate parts of life, he weaves everyday occurrences into a series of lyrical essays. In his essays, the author speaks to an audience that is growing in number: those concerned with living fuller, richer lives, whether at home or at work. It's a message that is becoming part of the national ethos, and one that he articulates beautifully.
