充滿瞭男性masculinity的味道,後半部分比前半部分堪讀,想到當年工作時那種cubicle drone的感覺似曾相識,quit the job也算明智之舉。
評分感覺是對建立在實物和個人之間的institution的批判,最後還要建設性地暢想一下自由人社會的樣子~有些思考很好,但是他的個人經曆太難relate,又喜歡把簡單的問題化為長篇論述加上哲學詞語,不是很好讀。
評分究竟有多少喜歡修摩托車的哲學傢...書寫風格太像在寫哲學論文,語法復雜生僻詞用得多,讀起來有點纍。親手勞作帶來的自我價值並不是什麼新鮮主題。覺得有意思的一些論述:教育係統中勞動教育缺失的後果,藍領工作如何幫助構建一個社會的道德體係
評分有點像Alain de Botton的那些書。不過這本的內容有點散亂。可能幾篇長一點的blog已經能把道理都講清楚瞭。

Shop Class as Soulcraft brings alive an experience that was once quite ordinary, but now seems to be receding over the cultural horizon—the experience of making and fixing things. Working with your hands, as Mathew B. Crawford describes it, connects us to the world around us. Those of us who sit in an office often have intuitions of something gone amiss, a sense of unreality accompanied by feelings of impotence. What, after all, do we do all day? In this wholly original debut, Crawford offers a brief for self-reliance and a sustained reflection on this problem: how to live concretely in an ever more abstract world. Shop Class as Soulcraft seeks to restore the honor of the manual trades as a life worth choosing for anyone who felt hustled off to college, then to the cubicle, against their own inclinations and natural bents. On both economic and psychological grounds, Crawford questions the educational imperative of turning everyone into a “knowledge worker.” This imperative, he explains, is based on a misguided separation of thinking from doing, the work of the hand from that of the mind. Crawford shows in precise detail how such a partition, which began a century ago with the assembly line, degrades work for those on both sides of the divide.
But he offers good news as well: The manual trades are very different from factory work. They require a lot of thinking and may even give rise to moments of genuine pleasure. Based on his own experience as an electrician and mechanic, Crawford makes a case for the intrinsic satisfactions and cognitive challenges— the soulcraft—of manual work. The work of builders and mechanics cannot be outsourced. They tie us to the local communities in which we live and instill the pride that comes from doing work that is genuinely useful.
Speaking squarely to a culture that continues to grapple for a way to reconcile work and life and to find fulfilling work of all stripes, Shop Class as Soulcraft offers inspired social criticism and deep personal exploration. It will change your understanding of the value of work and the work of bringing value and meaning to your life, whatever you do now or hope to do one day.

評分 評分完美的状态不能一蹴而就,而是要通过自我校正,在振荡中带到理想的比值。 修理工在做每一件工作时,都要先抛开自己的想法,专注于要修理的东西上:他必须仔细去看、去听。 人人可见的工作成绩是一种社交的工具。 如果说满足感是一种个人的感受,那其中必然存在自我的表现。 市...
