    Highly informative and thought-provoking
    You'd think that the title suggests a chronological account of how we came to the concept work, but, this is not the case. I wanted to say 'unfortunately', but it is just the perspective that the author chose to take. You'd think that the author would speculate on how humans' thinking gradually progressed as they proceeded from the work on tools to food processing, agriculture and architecture. Rather, the author tackles the issue through different topic-based chapters and only towards the conclusion of the book do we begin to understand our state of mind when it comes to economy.

    The author points out that our ancestors (based on observations of present-day hunter-gatherer tribes) spent considerably less time working than we do now,thereby having more time for other activivities, such as art and procreation. Thus, in evolutionary terms, contemporary humans are as much a product of leisure as labour. The book is basically devoted to pre-industrial (through industrial) to post industrial world.

    Surprisingly, the author taps into psychological aspects of work: workoholism in particular as a modern phenomenon unknown to foragers. He ponders that once viewed as physical labour, activities like garderning or fishing are now frequently considered leisure pursuits. I also appreciate mentioning and comparing slavery to exploitation of animals, both of which constitue hard labour.

    Finally, the author points out the vulnerability of current jobs as being under palpable imminent threat of replacement by AI. Another pressing issue the humankind is facing is the economic question, i.e. the unsustainability of the perpetual demand for and preoccupation with economic growth, which is, inter alia, associated with a series of environmental consequences. The quintessential question thus comes to mind: how will we organise ourselves economically in the future? We cannot just go back to foraging even if we know that this is by far the most sustainable and viable option.

    Overall, I find this book highly informative and though-provoking. There is only one drawback I'd like to mention, particularly that in my view some of the passages were unnecessarily detailed, i.e. tool-making, but, when I think about it, this might be just because I am not an anthropologist myself.
