This is surprising as since the middle of the 19th century the world of work has been at the centre of political struggle and social conflict.  This collection of essays on how major European thinkers have conceptualised work aims to fill this gap and provides the first concise, yet substantial history of philosophical ideas about work. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eThe Concept of Work in the History of European Philosophy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eis essential reading for all scholars, researchers and advanced students of the history of philosophy.
