Henry at Work

In 'Henry at Work', John Kaag and Jonathan van Belle delve into the often-overlooked aspect of Henry David Thoreau as a worker, challenging the misconception of him as a recluse.

Thoreau's ideas on work, including manual labor and the search for meaningful employment, are examined alongside contemporary examples to provide insights into rethinking work in the age of automation and remote work.

The book offers a personal and practical exploration of Thoreau's philosophy, applicable to various work environments.
