After Business
This collection of essays by George Bentley explores the themes of work, leisure, and culture in the late 19th century. Bentley argues that the rise of industrial capitalism has created a culture of overwork and stress, which has negative effects on both individual health and social harmony. He advocates for a more balanced approach to work and leisure, and encourages readers to cultivate their intellectual and artistic interests as a means of personal fulfillment.
