"An accessible interpretation of the Joseph story, this book is a reader-friendly treatment of one of the most popular tales in the Bible. Instead of its usual reading as an Horatio Alger success story, the text proposes that we are presented with a cautionary tale of high achievement and the pursuit of success"--Provided by publisher.
