September 13, 2007 - The Xlibris release, The Lost Art of Giving Back, encourages everyday folk to experience and discover the boundless joys of volunteerism and public service.
Christopher Cathcart highlights the power and beauty of giving back. The author focuses on volunteerism as the willingness of people to work on behalf of others without the expectation of any tangible gain, and can be one of life's defining experiences.
By using examples of his own life, as well as those of others, Cathcart offers readers an easy-to-follow guide to help them overcome the obstacles that keep many from serving.
Cathcart also reviews such important topics as finding time to get active, getting one's workplace involved, being creative, and redefining the overall concept of volunteering.
A brisk, yet insightful book, The Lost Art of Giving Back is a must-read for anyone seeking to break through their self-imposed limitations and join the noble ranks of volunteerism.
The Lost Art of Giving Back is one of the top 10 bestsellers in the Xlibris’ online bookstore.
