How we work, if we work, is fundamental to the understanding of this society, a study important not only to sociology but also to business and politics. Strangleman (sociology, U. of Kent) and Warren (sociology, U. of Nottingham) give undergraduate and graduate students a solid background in classic and new theory and practice. They begin by involving students immediately in the investigation of work at the theoretical and research levels, explaining the various ways in which work is represented and therefore approached. They show how work and social change inter-relate, and give in-depth analyses of the division and control of work, domestic work, unemployment, and the complex relationships among culture, emotion, identity and work. Each chapter includes lists of further reading and boxed material supports both classroom discussions and self-study. This could also serve as a researchers' reference.
