An intimate portrait of London life in the first decade of the 21st century, this study reveals the lived reality of metropolitan labor–its satisfactions and frustrations, positives and negatives. Based on interviews with working people, this is a story of unsung heroes and heroines, of bus drivers, shop-keepers, metro workers, computer programmers, artisans, teachers, and entrepreneurs–the everyday people whose labors underwrite Britain’s economic powerhouse.
