À propos de cet audio

 A philosopher/mechanic's wise (and sometimes funny) look at the challenges and pleasures of working with one's hands

“This is a deep exploration of craftsmanship by someone with real, hands-on knowledge. The book is also quirky, surprising, and sometimes quite moving.” —Richard Sennett, author of The Craftsman

Called “the sleeper hit of the publishing season” by The Boston Globe, Shop Class as Soulcraft became an instant bestseller, attracting readers with its radical (and timely) reappraisal of the merits of skilled manual labor. On both economic and psychological grounds, author Matthew B. Crawford questions the educational imperative of turning everyone into a “knowledge worker,” based on a misguided separation of thinking from doing. Using his own experience as an electrician and mechanic, Crawford presents a wonderfully articulated call for self-reliance and a moving reflection on how we can live concretely in an ever more abstract world.

Have enjoyed this book several times, I see the logic here, it is nice to have your world view confirmed this way. Yes it preaches to the converted here, so much so much so I have gifted the book several times.
I have worked outdoors using my witts and the tools of the trade my whole life and can continue to do so in retirement to great satisfaction. The best men I have known have been the renaissance men that are Jacks of many trades, these people have all been happy, curious and satisfied with life.
