The requisite empathy for others, socially acceptable values and correct forms of self-presentation demand work. Much of this work is concentrated in non-work activity, compromising traditional connections between leisure and freedom. Ranging widely from an analysis of the inflated aspirations of the leisure society thesis to the culture of deception that permeates leisure choice, the author shows how leisure is inextricably linked to emotional labour and intelligence. aSpecialized. aDescription based on print version record. aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 0aLeisurexSociological aspects. 0aRecreationxSociological aspects. 7aElectronic books.2local2 aSage eBooks08iPrint version :z978141294552340uhttp://ezproxy.alfaisal.edu/login?url=http://sk.sagepub.com/books/the-labour-of-leisure 2lcccEBOOKS c481565d481565
