It's no secret that the economy, despite some recent gains, is in a pretty bad place. With almost 9% of Americans out of work, including many new college grads, unemployment isn't rare; unfortunately, it's becoming harder and harder to find work as the recession drags on. Yet there is hope for those who are out of work, especially those willing to learn new skills, polish their resumes, and get back into the workforce. While it's not easy, many people are finding work. Though it may come with a smaller paycheck, a career change, or after months of concentrated searching, work in any form is something to be grateful for in an economic downturn.If you're unemployed, you likely have a bit of free time on your hands that can be used to do some reading that can help to get you back on track with your career or even find a new one altogether. Here, we've collected some books that are sure to inspire, educate, and motivate you as you manage the good, the bad, and the ugly of unemployment.

How to Deal With Grief and Loss

Psychologists have learned that most people experience similar thoughts and emotions when confronted with loss. These have been named the Stages of Grief. Whether a grieving person proceeds through these stages in a set order or not, the different stages help us to work through our loss in a way that will help us to accept it and heal.
But we can't tuck messy emotions into neat little packages. The Stages of Grief are responses to loss that many people have. There is not a typical response to loss, as there is no typical loss. Our grieving is as individual as our lives.
If you are trying to cope with a loss, these stages will help you to understand that, though painful and often confusing, what you are feeling is normal. When someone or something is wrested away from us forever, we suffer an acute emotional wound. Mentally, we must adjust to this trauma in stages because we cannot accommodate that much pain all at once. And so the process begins.
