Books like Who moved my BlackBerry? by Lucy Kellaway


Set in the high‑pressure world of corporate offices, Martin Lukes is portrayed as a man of ambition and delusion, eager to take credit and obsess over jargon while failing to connect with those around him. Through a year of email exchanges, readers witness his attempts at "personal growth" that repeatedly disappoint his colleagues, wife Jenny, and his own sons, revealing a disconnect between ambition and understanding. The narrative offers a witty critique of office politics and modern communication, highlighting how aspirations can collide with reality.

The end of work by 8359842|Jeremy Rifkin book cover

📘 The end of work
 by Jeremy Rifkin

Jeremy Rifkin argues that we are entering a new phase in history - one characterized by the steady and inevitable decline of jobs. The world, says Rifkin, is fast polarizing into two potentially irreconcilable forces: on one side, an information elite that controls and manages the high-tech global economy; and on the other, the growing numbers displaced workers, who have few prospects and little hope for meaningful employment in an increasingly automated world. The end of work could mean the demise of civilization as we have come to know it, or signal the beginning of a great social transformation and a rebirth of the human spirit.
