The Labour of Leisure
The Culture of Free Time
Chris Rojek
Leisure has always been associated with freedom, choice and flexibility. The week-end and vacations were celebrated as ‘time off’. In his compelling new book, Chris Rojek examines how leisure has become a form of labour. Ranging widely from an analysis of the inflated aspirations of the leisure society thesis to the culture of deception that permeates leisure choice, Rojek shows how leisure is inextricably linked to emotional labour and intelligence.

The SAGE Handbook of Social Geographies

The SAGE Handbook of Quantitative Methods in Psychology
Roger E Millsap & Alberto Maydeu-Olivares
Quantitative psychology is arguably one of the oldest disciplines within the field of psychology and nearly all psychologists are exposed to quantitative psychology in some form. While textbooks in statistics, research methods and psychological measurement exist, none offer a unified treatment of quantitative psychology. The SAGE Handbook of Quantitative Methods in Psychology does just that.Price: £100.00
