We spend most of our waking lives at work—in occupations most often chosen by our inexperienced younger selves. And yet we rarely ask ourselves how we got there or what our jobs mean to us.
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work is an exploration of the joys and perils of the modern workplace, beautifully exploring what other people wake up to do each day—and night—to make our frenzied world function. With a philosophical eye and his signature combination of wit and wisdom, Alain de Botton leads us on a journey around an eclectic range of occupations, from rocket scientist to biscuit manufacturer, from accountant to artist—in search of what makes jobs either soul-destroying or fulfilling.

評分Before I started my book, I was reading a wonderful children's book to my four-year-old son. It's called "What do people do all day". It's a wonderful book because it just goes through a whole range of jobs. You find out about how paper is made, and how electricity is generated, etc. I remember thinking I want to do an adult version of it.
