David S. Cunningham is Director of the Network for Vocation in Undergraduate Education (NetVUE), Council of Independent Colleges. As Director of the NetVUE Scholarly Resources Project, he developed this volume as well as two previous books on vocation and higher education. He is Professor of Religion at Hope College, where he also serves as Director of the CrossRoads Project. He is the author of five books and editor of four collections on various topics in religion, ethics, and higher education.

This volume is an excellent example of what it wants to achieve...From my own neoCalvinist Reformed background, I can only underline its importance.
