compassionate -- observers of American life. In Why We Work, he
makes a compelling case for building organizations that run with
the grain of human nature rather than against it. If you want to
make work more meaningful, for yourself or for your team, you need
to read this wise and powerful book."--Daniel H. Pink, author of
Drive

business and industry to reveal the underpinning moral foundations
of how and why we work. If you have a job, or hope to have one,
read Why We Work"--Laszlo Bock, Senior Vice President of People
Operations at Google and author of Work Rules!
