A new book says work should be associated with "dignity and fulfillment" rather than "drudgery and futility."

Loving Monday: Succeeding in Business Without Selling Your Soul, a new book by John Beckett, president of R.W. Beckett Corporation, manufacturer of residential and commercial oil burners, says that work should be associated with "dignity and fulfillment" rather than "drudgery and futility." Beckett uses his own experiences from childhood, education, marriage and fatherhood to explain the relationship between a person's faith and the world of business and industry.

In the introduction, Beckett says, "It is a book to help us see the practical value of applying foundational values in our businesses and occupations." The book is available nationwide at major bookstores for $15.99. For more information, visit the Web site www.lovingmonday.com.
