Work Less: New Strategies for a Changing Workplace

You can't have a healthy economy with an unhealthy work force. Work Less proposes ways to reduce work hours and keep workers happier, healthier, and more productive. Recent years have revealed just how stressed out many workers are. While the trend to longer hours has been developing for several decades, the trend's effects have been aggravated during the pandemic by the growing use of Zoom and other new technologies for meetings with clients, customers, and coworkers. Exhausted and fed up, today's workers are starting to insist on shorter hours and greater flexibility as to where they do their work. There is growing consensus that the forty-hour week, the norm since the 1940s, has outlived its usefulness. And there is an urgent need for new work schedules that adequately reflect the far greater intensity of work today, as well as the greater family demands on a labor force made up of almost fifty percent women, who bear the brunt of domestic duties. Work Less offers practical scheduling suggestions to employers and workers and numerous policy options for government policy-makers to improve working conditions.

Dusty Booze: In Search of Vintage Spirits

In Dusty Booze: In Search of Vintage Spirits, journalist Aaron Goldfarb goes on an adventure in vintage spirits. This is an intoxicating story of obsessives on the hunt for old bottles of whiskey, tequila, rum, chartreuse-you name it-from estate sales, grandpa's liquor cabinet, and out-of-the-way and inner-city liquor stores that may just have a case or a few bottles lying around in the basement. What Goldfarb and these 'dusty hunters' discover are more than just bottles from bygone brands or old formulations no longer available-they find portals into history. Spirits, once bottled, don't age like wine. A bourbon from the 1935 lets you savor the end of Prohibition. A 1940s rum cocktail with actual 1940s rum tastes the way it would to a GI returning from WWII. An old Italian amaro captures la dolce vita in a glass, and vintage gin is a drinkable time capsule from Mad Men-era lunchtime martinis. Dusty Booze mixes the history of our drinking culture and the Indiana Jones-meets-Simpsons Comic Book Guy adventures of the collectors, including the hunt for rumored stash from a reclusive Hollywood legend. This is a buoyant, thirst-triggering voyage into a unique subculture that has exploded in popularity in recent years.
