In this essay, Russell mostly propagates or propagandizes reasons why the workforce should work less, 4 hours a day. Even though the man is said to be extremely evil(I'm not sure how evil he is yet,) he was smart. That is unfortunate I suppose. It is also unfortunate that he admired the Communists and talked them up. Russell does lay down some good reasons for a shorter work day/week though. The question will become more and more relevant as the world moves from just plain old and industrial automation and robotics to having robots, AI and other automation in the service sector and other parts of everyday life. The audiobook was read by myself and is poasted to my channel. https://youtu.be/Lpvmnw2N5sk
