Matthew Etherington Perspectives on Working Life

Annotation

This book serves to begin an important discussion about work, an activity that consumes most of our lives. Our work means a lot to us, even to those who do not enjoy the toil. This text investigates work from diverse worldviews, theories, and viewpoints, including cultural, religious, humanist, and Indigenous. It operates on the premise that our work lives can be more deeply understood and appreciated when exposed to perspectives of reality that are different from our own. Moving closer to understanding different ways of knowing and experiencing work will yield new insights about the intersection of relationships and crisis at work.
