This provocative book makes a compelling case for reducing the number of workdays in a week to four. International business expert Robert Grosse draws on scholarly research to construct an appealing argument for why the four-day workweek benefits both the organization and the employee.

It delves into why, explores the means for achieving it, and scrutinizes the barriers to getting there.
