- For Jonny Wineberg
- First words
- Hiding what we feel and faking what we don't is so much a part of everyday life, both at and away from work, that you may be wondering why a book on the subject is needed.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)This should, ultimately, involve cooperation between employer and employed so that rather than the worker's ability to hide and fake being exploited, as many believe it is to some extent now, it is instead channelled and managed to the benefit of all.
