¡@Description
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is an exploration of
the joys and perils of the modern workplace. With a philosophical
eye and his characteristic combination of wit and wisdom, de
Botton leads us on a journey around a deliberately eclectic range
of occupations, from rocket science to biscuit manufacturing,
accountancy to art - in the name of exploring what makes our
jobs either fulfilling or soul-destroying.
