The authors explain why and how time pressures have emerged and what we can do to alleviate them. In contrast to conventional wisdom that all Americans are overworked, they show that time has become a form of social inequality that is dividing Americans in new ways—between overworked and underemployed, women and men, parents and non-parents.
