      The image of a job captures our imagination from an early age, usually prompted by the question 'What do you want to be when you grow up?'. Work -- paid, unpaid, voluntary, or obligatory -- is woven into the fabric of all human societies. For many of us, it becomes part of our identity. For<br>others it is a tedious necessity. Living is problematic without paid work, and for many it is catastrophic. <br><br>Steve Fineman tells the fascinating story of work - how we strive for security, reward, and often, meaning. Looking at how we classify 'work'; the cultural and social factors that influence the way we work; the ethics of certain types of work; and the factors that will affect the future of work,<br>from globalization to technology, this <em>Very Short Introduction</em> considers work as a concept and as a practical experience, drawing upon ideas from psychology, sociology, management, and social history.<br>
