The book deals with the concept of Heavy Work Investment (HWI)
recently initiated by Snir and Harpaz. Since its introduction the
interest in the general HWI model has increased considerably. The
book illustrates the development of HWI conceptualization, theory,
and research. It deals with the foremost HWI subtype of
workaholism. However, it also compares workaholism as a "negative"
HWI subtype with work devotion/passion/engagement, as a "positive"
HWI subtype. Most importantly, it addresses HWI in general,
including its possible situational subtypes. In view of Snir and
Harpaz's claim that the study of situational heavy work investors
is relatively scarce, this certainly constitutes a promising step
in the right direction. Finally, it deals with timely and important
topics examined by prominent international researchers on Heavy
Work Investment and such issues as: personality factors of
workaholism, work-life balance, cross-cultural similarities and
differences in HWI, work addiction and technology, HWI and
retirement, and intergenerational similarity in work
investment.
