THE MEANINGS OF WORK

Dr. Steven G. Smith, of Millsaps College has compiled this wonderful and wide range of perspectives on the meanings of work (sociological, philosophical, pyschological, historical, anthropological, theological, and literary). While by no means exhaustive, this list is great starting place. Enjoy!
