Explore how science, society, and education collide to reshape work, value, and freedom. This study weaves psychology, economics, and sociology to argue that genuine progress comes from reconciling worker power with a humane, integrated view of value and learning. It challenges old myths about money, merit, and control, and lays out a bold vision for a more just society centered on human autonomy and shared growth.
In clear, accessible terms, the book traces how intellectuals and wage-workers can unite around a common project: replacing fragmented theories with a science of human behavior that honors both work and compassion. It asks readers to reimagine schools, markets, and government as partners in developing whole persons rather than mere cogs in a system.
- See how moral philosophy, psychology, and economics intersect to redefine value and labor
- Learn why education should focus on the student’s autonomy, not mere performance
- Discover a forward-looking view of democracy that links individual freedom with social equality
- Understand the role of love, community, and practical science in shaping public life
Ideal for readers curious about how ideas translate into real-world reform, this edition speaks to students, educators, policy enthusiasts, and anyone interested in a more humane approach to work and learning.
