The Overworked American: The Unexpected Decline Of Leisure

The Overworked American: The Unexpected Decline Of Leisure

This pathbreaking book explains why, contrary to all expectations, Americans are working harder than ever. Juliet Schor presents the astonishing news that over the past twenty years our working hours have increased by the equivalent of one month per yearÂ—a dramatic spurt that has hit everybody: men and women, professionals as well as low-paid workers. Why are weÂ—unlike every other industrialized Western nationÂ—repeatedly â€choosingâ€ money over time? And what can we do to get off the treadmill?
