An internationally-bestselling writer's exploration of why work isn't working, and how our lives can be made more meaningful.

An internationally-bestselling writer's exploration of why work isn't working, and how our lives can be made more meaningful.

'Fantastic' - Cal Newport

'A bold vision ... lights the way to fewer hours, less stress, and more meaning' - Adam Grant

Workers across all demographics, industries, and socioeconomic levels report exhaustion, burnout, and the wish for more meaningful lives.

Drawing on years of research, Brigid Schulte traces the arc of our discontent from a time before the 1980s, when work was compatible with well-being and allowed a single earner to support a family, until today, with millions of people working multiple hourly jobs or in white-collar positions where no hours are ever off duty.

She casts a wide net in search of solutions, exploring the movement to institute a four-day workweek, introducing Japan's Housewives Brigade-which demands legal protection for family time-and embedding with CEOs who are making the business case for humane conditions.

Rich with stories and informed by deep investigation, Over Work lays out a clear vision for ending our punishing grind and reclaiming leisure, joy, and meaning.
