In Defense of Leisure
Bernier, Normand R.
Counseling and Values, 20, 1, 5-11, Oct 75
Leisure is defined as an individual's expression of his unique style and personal psychic rhythm. The author challenges the present pessimistic evaluation of American society's future. He considers puritanism outmoded and harmful and calls for exploration of various means of leisure to overcome alienation and make life meaningful. (SE)
