The Value of Work
This was my dissertation on the Value of Work. It's a philosophical analysis of the concept and value of work. I discuss the different types of work, as well as defend a general conception of work. Based off this conception, I discuss the value of work and argue that work is not a necessarily burdensome kind of employment. This book is of great value to anyone, but especially students struggling to understand why they are being asked to work.
