Summary: "People are always on the road. Some travel for pleasure, others travel for work or education, and many travel to find a new job and a better life. In the United States, even those who don't travel far still frequently find themselves on the move. Those who let themselves be inspired by this movement, and are willing to learn from others and from mistakes in the process, are well positioned to make a difference in the world, not only at home but also around the globe." -- Back Cover
