Love the Work, Hate the Job
Expanding
on a 2000 report he wrote for the institute, David Kusnet has released a
fascinating new book about the frustrations faced by American workers,
including high-skilled professionals, who like the work they do but not the
conditions under which they are forced to do it. Read a USA Today
review
here.

The Albert Shanker Institute, named in honor of the
late president of the American Federation of Teachers, is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to three themes—children's education, unions as
advocates for quality, and freedom of association in the public life of
democracies. Its mission is to generate ideas, foster candid exchanges, and
promote constructive policy proposals related to these themes.
