'Joanne Ciulla invites us to explore the historical and cultural presuppositions about employment.  She says that the greatest challenge today is not work, but how to make our lives work.  She traces work from "curse to calling - and beyond" by drawing on history, mythology (ancient and contemporary), pop culture, management theory, and practical experience.'
