想辭職又不知道能做什麼/這本書豆瓣評分這麼低真是讓人懷疑豆瓣讀書的是不是都是手不沾陽春水的文青
評分勸退佳作。
評分Crawford 在這本書中對 knowledge worker 工作實質的分析讀來真的心有戚戚焉。不過按照他的分析,這類工作”弱智化“(dumbing down)恐怕是當代企業甚或是社會的係統問題,幾乎無法避免。Crawford 本人逍遙遁入摩托車維修行,根本不關心還在乾糟心工作的白領”我該怎麼辦“的問題。拋開試圖解決問題的心態,讀本書中 Crawford 的批判和分析隻覺得酣暢。但如果還是想要入世,還是多看看 Cal Newport 比較好╮(╯▽╰)╭

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.
还行是我给的,国外评论应该是相当好的。作者毕业于芝加哥大学政治哲学专业,毕业后进入华盛顿智囊团,在工作期间,他时常感到迷茫,看不出自己工作的意义,于是在工作5个月后,他离开,转而去修摩托车。这段从哲学缺位到哲学实践的过程,就构成了这本新书。 以下粗译,不当之...

評分前不久在越南旅行时,遇上一位年纪不到20的瑞士青年,他刚高中毕业,在他的间隔年里畅游世界。我当时惊讶于他不卑不亢但暗露自信的风格,“你是要过完一年间隔年再准备上大学啊?” “啊,还没这样想。你可能不知道,我们瑞士的学制有些不一样,我们在高中时是半学徒制的,我们...
評分2014年5月,我去到一家新的创业公司工作,负责文案撰写,此前我在一家门户网站做网络编辑。那份工作我做了两年多,到最后感觉整个人都枯竭了,好像所有的灵感、创造力都被掏空了,自己成了空心人。每次坐在办公桌前,等着下班的终点快点到来,等到发工资的时候,我为自己拿到的...
