Human Work is a non-fiction book written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and originally published in 1904. The book explores the concept of work and its impact on human life and society. Gilman argues that work should be viewed as a means of fulfilling human needs and desires, rather than simply as a way to earn a living. She also advocates for the importance of social and economic equality in the workplace, and critiques the gendered division of labor that was prevalent in her time. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different aspect of work: its purpose, its organization, and its relationship to society. Throughout the book, Gilman draws on examples from history and contemporary society to illustrate her points, and offers suggestions for how work can be reimagined to better serve human needs. Human Work is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the role of work in human life, and remains relevant to contemporary discussions about labor and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
