Katz is one of a new generation of thought provoking writers who has emerged to paint a really different approach to work and skill, industry and technology, politics and trade unionism.He is steeped in design craft, with experience and knowledge of a broad range of historical and contemporary manufacturing processes. As such he is well placed to analyse the development of the industrial revolution in Britain and the ideas of one of its greatest critics - William Morris.Whilst scathing of the waste of human potential in the past and present, Katz concludes that our future working lives - and hence the quality of our whole lives - can be changed significantly, and for the better.
