Age Of Unreason

In this fascinating book, Charles Handy shows how dramatic changes are transforming business, education, and the nature of work. We can see them in astounding new developments in technology, in the shift in demand from manual to cerebral skills, and in the virtual disappearance of lifelong, full-time jobs.

For over two decades, Charles Handy has been talking us through the twists and turns of the workplace and our world. With prophetic wisdom and uncanny insight, he has foreseen how major changes will affect the way we live and work -- and with candor and wit he has helped us make sense of it all.

Now, as the pace and scale of change reach dizzying proportions, four of Handy's most acclaimed works will be republished in new editions.

The Age of Unreason impels readers to embrace-discontinuous change as the only path to a better future.

Together, these eloquent works define the thinking of one of our most astute critics of modern capitalism -- and offer a hopeful window on the kind of world we can yet create.
