Work Won’t Love You Back: How Devotion to Our Jobs Keeps Us Exploited, Exhausted, and Alone

bySarah Jaffe

Sarah Jaffe uses Work Won’t Love You Back to investigate how Devotion to Our Jobs Keeps Us Exploited, Exhausted, and Alone through a carefully framed economic analysis. Its account follows central actors and turning points while showing how the story reflects questions in the connected fields of business & economics and political science. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. The book ultimately clarifies what made these developments possible, who experienced their effects, and why the story remains significant.
