Description: Jamie Swift combines sharp-eyed journalism that brings out the nuances of daily life with a penetrating analysis of jobless recovery. He describes the emerging world of work through the eyes and experiences of people in Kingston and Windsor-two Ontario cities with roots in the pre-industrial past, places poised for the post-industrial information age.
Review Quotes: "The best account we have of the raw, stark reality of working and non-working life in Canada's industrial heartland... Immensely revealing and rewarding." -- Canadian Book Review Annual
