outsourcing services such as Web design, software development, and animation ( Shameen 2006).

6/8

This book presents an analysis amd review of work, starting with the Homeric

period, then dealing with classical Greece and classical Rome, the early

Christians and Jews, the early Middle Ages, the era of Charlemagne, the high

Middle Ages, the views of Luther and Calvin, the English and French

Enlightenment, the nineteenth century, the twentieth century, and prospects

for the future of work. It offers a rich and varied tapestry on the complexity

of values regarding work, criss-crossing through crafts, occupations andprofessions, through slave and free-born employments, through lay and

religious figures, and through rural and urban contexts. The permutations of

work and its meanings are traced and related to the social and cultural

contexts of each period of history dealt with ancient, medieval, andmodern.

Applebaum offers projections for work in the future, based on modern-day

technologies, along with work within the context of new social conditions

created by industrial cultures in the modern period. The future of work is

examined as one of the key elements for the possibility of change in the

social structure of industrial cultures. At a time when so many people are

questioning the work ethic, this book provides a valuable perspective on work

in past societies, how it has developed and been transformed, and what are

its prospects for the future.

This book focuses throughout on one theme: how work was regardedthroughout the history of western civilization. In focusing on this theme, the

author touches on very basic issues in sociology and social science form

complex organization, to gender stratification, social stratification, and the

sociology of religion. But these underlying issues are never allowed to divert

the reader's attention form the main focus of the work. This singular focusmakes the book an extremely important contribution. Kevin T. Leicht,Pennsylvania State University

This book gives us both the conditions of work at particular times and theconcepts of work expressed in the contemporaneous writing of major figures.

Thus, we have a picture of what people were working at, their occupations and working with, their tools and the attitudes toward that laboring voicedby philosophers and other thinkers in their textual work. The amount ofinformation contained in its pages is truly awesome. Miles Richardson,Louisiana State University

Herbert Applebaum is Director of Commercial Construction at Hartz
