The first systematic treatment of fatigue for over sixty years, radically reconfiguring the landscape of the subject. By casting fatigue in the role of an emotion, this book provides a new framework for thinking about it as a mechanism for managing competing activities and discouraging overcommitment to unrewarding goals.
