- catalog abstract ""Why, at a time of unprecedented national prosperity, do so many Americans feel that their lives are less than they could be? And why do so many Americans - working harder and longer and with less security than ever before - question the price of success demanded by today's hot-wired economy?" "Paula Rayman offers a blueprint for transforming the world of work - and for dealing with the disconnect between work, family, and community that's the downside of our relentlessly competitive culture." "Speaking to everyone who feels both overworked and underemployed, Rayman reminds us of the reality behind the facade of the global economy - from deepening wage gaps to 60-hour work weeks, from chronic job insecurity to inadequate health care. People at the margins still don't share in America's enormous wealth. Middle-class workers live frantic lives, running faster and faster just to keep in place. At the same time, increasing numbers of men and women feel that caring for family is more important than money, power, or prestige."--Jacket.".
