Description

|
|
"We ought to get to understand the value of intelligent work, the work of men's hands guided by their brains, and to take that, though it be rough, rather than the unintelligent work of machines." A visionary English socialist and pioneer of the arts and crafts movement of the late 19th century, William Morris argued that all work should be a source of pride and satisfaction, and that everyone, no matter their class, should be entitled to beautiful surroundings. This book is part of a series of compact paperback editions unearthing potent books of ideas from the world's great thinkers, pioneers, radicals, and visionaries—books that have transformed the way we see each other and ourselves.
