An analysis and prediction of the "new wave" of self-employment calls for Americans to wake up to the fact that commitment to a traditional corporate structure does not guarantee personal validation or financial security.

From the Inside Flap

Tom Peters, author of IN SEARCH OF EXCELLENCE:
"FREE AGENT NATION is the best book on work life since William H. Whyte, Jr.'s THE ORGANIZATION MAN. Whyte was the brilliant archivist of work in the old economy. Pink is the brilliant analyst-balladeer of work in the new economy. Confident prediction: 25 years from now we'll still be discussing FREE AGENT NATION. Added benefit: the book is as beautifully written as it is profoundly prophetic. It's so original and comprehensive I grew exhausted from underlining." Nancy Evans, Co-Founder and Editor-in-Chief, iVillage.com:
"Women are definitely a driving force among free agents. I see it at iVillage and out in the world. Daniel Pink does a great job of understanding what inspires these individuals to strike out on their own -- the ability to lead a fulfilling, integrated life on their own terms. Here's hoping this book liberates even more free agents!"

Seth Godin, author of UNLEASHING THE IDEA VIRUS
"The most important book on the death of the large economy I've seen. Your current employer is DEAD. The dead-end job is DEAD. The days of huge companies dominating every facet of our worklife are OVER. Listen to Pink or lose out!"
