In their history of man and his work, the authors have told the story of work, how man has conceived of it, organized it, and reacted to it from pre-historic times to the present, and they speculate what work will become in the future as man is increasingly replaced by machine. The book is divided into three main sections: Work in the Pre-Industrial Age, Work in the Early Industrial Age, and Modern Production: Technology and Consequences.
