“‘The worker and his work,’ by Stella S. Center, is a text for high schools designed ‘to meet the needs of boys and girls who feel the urgent necessity of selecting the right vocation.’ It is a book of prose selections from present-day writers, ranging from H. G. Wells to Harold Bell Wright, interspersed with a few bits of verse.” (Nation) “It is not concerned with processes nor practical problems. The illustrations are from artists who use some form of labor for their subjects; they include Meunier, Pennell and Rodin.” (Booklist)

“The selections themselves leave a confusing and contradictory impression.”
