- catalog abstract ""Sabbaticals for everyone? Not quite, but there's plenty of good reason to extend them beyond academia and into selected sectors of the world outside. Lawyer and teacher Daniel C. Kramer shows from his own meticulous research and others' that workplace sabbatical programs have produced greater benefits than costs, and that they could be spread to most of the American work force with only a simple amendment or two to the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. Workplace sabbaticals must be conceived and administrated commonsensically, of course, and there will always be places where they won't work. But there's enough evidence that they will work - primarily in organizations of more than 50 people - and in the public and private sectors both. Kramer presents a challenging, thought-provoking book for policy and executive decision-makers throughout the country, and new fuel for debate within the academic community as well."--Jacket.".
