John Haworth challenges these assumptions and shows that the very constriction of work, like having to perform a task we wouldn't otherwise choose, are often the most rewarding in the end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWork, Leisure and Well Being\u003c\/em\u003e reviews the current literature and complements it with the findings of the most recent research to provide a serious and fascinating study of the most important areas of adult life. It raises as many questions as it answers; for instance, if paid work is better than a leisure activity, what's the use of looking forward to retirement?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWork, Leisure and Well Being\u003c\/em\u003e will be of interest not only to psychologists, but also to a wide range of professionals involved in social policy and the leisure industry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54235945468248,"sku":"9780415148627","price":61.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780415148627_f8779a04-58e8-48e6-94ed-805ad6df4d18.jpg?v=1777267855","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/work-leisure-and-well-being","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
