Reviews

Combining both new empirical evidence and a mix of different theories, this book offers a unique insight into the relationship between subjective well-being and time use. The book contributes positively to an important debate on how we might lead better and more fulfilled lives inside and outside work. Reading it is time well-spent. -- David Spencer, Professor of Economics and Political Economy, Centre for Employment Relations Innovation and Change, University of Leeds
