Opis

Jan Lucassen presents a truly inclusive history of humanity's endless labor throughout the ages. Spanning China, India, Africa, the Americas, and Europe, Lucassen examines the ways in which labor is split between men, women, and children; the watershed moment of the invention of money; and the impact of migration, slavery, and the idea of leisure.
