Work: A Very Short IntroductionThe image of a job captures our imagination from an early age, usually prompted by the question 'What do you want to be when you grow up?'. Work paid, unpaid, voluntary, or obligatory is woven into the fabric of all human societies. For many of us, it becomes part of our identity. For others it is a tedious necessity. Living is problematic without paid work, and for many it is catastrophic. Steve Fineman tells the fascinating story of work how we

The image of a job captures our imagination from an early age, usually prompted by the question 'What do you want to be when you grow up?'. Work -- paid, unpaid, voluntary, or obligatory -- is woven into the fabric of all human societies. For many of us, it becomes part of our identity. For others it is a tedious necessity. Living is problematic without paid work, and for many it is catastrophic.

Steve Fineman tells the fascinating story of work - how we strive for security, reward, and often, meaning. Looking at how we classify 'work'; the cultural and social factors that influence the way we work; the ethics of certain types of work; and the factors that will affect the future of work, from globalization to technology, this Very Short Introduction considers work as a concept and as a practical experience, drawing upon ideas from psychology, sociology, management, and social history.

My dog loves these!
Size: 5.75 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My dog loves these! I add a few pieces to his food to entice him to eat his meals. He loves the chicken! I appreciate that it is just chicken, and I am not giving my dog a bunch of filler.
