  • Publication Details

    Book, 2nd ed, New York University Press, 2007
  • Description

    This is also the first book I know of to look closely at the effect of workaholism on family members and children, the people who often feel most strongly its effects.? In this new and updated edition, Robinson portrays the many different kinds of workaholism, drawing on hundreds of case reports from his own original research and years of clinical practice. From California to the Carolinas, men and women tell of their agonizing bouts with workaholism and the devastations left in its wake, struggles made all the more challenging in a world where the computer, cell phone, and Blackberry allow twenty-four-hour access to the office, even on weekends and from vacation spots. Robinson presents strategies for workaholics and their loved ones on how to cope, and for people in the workplace on how to distinguish between work efficiency and workaholism.

    Book, Harvard University Press, 2004
  • Description

    This elegant essay on the justice of work focuses on the fit between who we are and the kind of work we do.
