Produktbeschreibung

A fresh approach to our careers, offering hopeful solutions to a myriad of professional challenges.




Work can be a source of creativity, excitement, and purpose. Yet many of us find ourselves confused, discouraged, and exhausted by our jobs. We are often tempted to blame ourselves, and to feel privately ashamed by our jobs.

The Sorrows of Work offers an invigorating and optimistic perspective on our working lives - and presents the skills and tools we need to overcome any professional challenge.

Autorenporträt

The School of Life is devoted to developing emotional intelligence. It addresses issues such as how to find fulfilling work, how to master the art of relationships, how to understand one's past, how to achieve calm and how better to understand and - where necessary - change the world. These ideas are delivered though a range of channels: from videos, books and products, to classes, events and one-to-one therapy sessions.

Headquartered in London, it operates around the globe with twelve international branches (Antwerp, Amsterdam, Berlin, Istanbul, Melbourne, Paris, São Paulo, Sydney, Seoul, Tel Aviv and Taipei). The School of Life is a rapidly growing global brand, with 3 million YouTube subscribers, 260,000 Facebook followers, 47,000 Instagram followers and 128,000 Twitter followers.

The School of Life Press brings together the writing of teachers, psychologists and philosophers under the creative direction of series editor, Alain de Botton. The aim of all the titles is to share a coherent message with one voice.
