Rethinking Work: An Interview With Tom Hodgkinson
By Porchlight
Since 1993, Tom Hodgkinson is the editor and co-founder of The Idler, a biannual book-shaped magazine that discusses the virtues of loafing. He's also written two incredibly insightful books from his country home in the UK, How to Be Idle and The Freedom Manifesto. Using a wealth of historical knowledge and research, current political and economic thought, as well as personal practice, both books discuss ways that we can achieve more by doing less.
