Omschrijving
Under this new ‘science of work’ that emerged in Britain between 1870 and 1939 fatigue was seen as the ultimate pathology of the working-class body, reducing workers’ capacity to perform continued physical or mental labour. As Steffan Blayney shows, the equation between health and efficiency did not go unchallenged.
