This is a pretty amazing work. 

If you're like me and don't care for self help, that's not the main focus, don't worry. It covers a wide range of topics in the history of what we consider work, why is productivity so important, why do we monetize hobbies or multitask, what is a workday, what is leisure, and how capitalism affects them. 

If you do enjoy self-help, there is an element of that too. She admits to her bit of privelige but also offers suggestions to help you stop working so much and learn to relax, if that's what you want to use the book for.

I thoroughly agreed with the pushback to the capitalist greed and multitasking productivity driven horserace approach to life and I'm impressed with how this is a self help book even those of us who hate that genre can like.
