The book is comprised of articles that were published on the ATD website. Topics are broken down into sections such as L&D Basics, Career Planning in TD, Training and Development Basics, Enhancing and Supporting TD, and so on.
It has some useful information for L&D professionals, which I found helpful. However, the book costs $134.00 on Amazon and not worth the investment. I recommend taking the book out from your public library, peruse articles on the ATD website, or Google talent development articles to obtain similar information.
