Item description from seller

404 Pages Indexed. White boards with orange quarter-spine and gold spine lettering. No defects noted. Dust jacket price $27.50 is unclipped. There is a very small stain on the inside spine area of the dust jacket. Contents in Four Parts: The Creative Age, Work, Life and Leisure, and Community. This book gives us a provocative new way to think about why we live as we do today-and where we might be headed. In a book that weaves story-telling with a massive body of research, Richard Florida traces the fundamental theme that runs through a host of seemingly unrelated changes in American society: the growing role of creativity in our economy. Just as William Whyte's 1956 classic The Organization Man showed how the organizational ethos of that age permeated every aspect of life, Florida describes a society in which the creative ethos is increasingly dominant. Millions of us are beginning to work and live much as creative types like artists and scientists always have-with the result that our values and tastes, our personal relationships, our choices of where to live, and even our sense and use of time are changing. Leading the shift are the nearly 38 million Americans in many diverse fields who create for a living -- the Creative Class. The Rise of the Creative Class chronicles the ongoing sea change in people's choices and attitudes, and shows not only what's happening but also how it sterns from a fundamental economic change. The Creative Class now comprises more than thirty percent of the entire workforce. The choices these people make already have had a huge economic impact, and in the future they will determine how the workplace is organized, what companies will prosper or go bankrupt, and even which cities will thrive or wither.
