Summary: "Brave new work! If that has a familiar ring, it is no doubt because of Aldous Huxley's Brave new world . Published in 1932, Huxley's classic novel depicted a dystopian society based on the principles upon which Henry Ford's assembly line was built: Efficiency, mass production, conformity, predictability and mass consumerism. Brave new workplace could not be more different. At its essence, Brave new workplace presents an optimistic picture of a post-pandemic work environment that is productive, healthy, and safe. And each of the words, Brave new workplace, convey something very different about this perspective on work"-- Provided by publisher.
