The construction industry as a workplace is commonly seen as |

problematic for a number of reasons, including its worrying health and safety record, the instability of its workforce, and the poorly regulated nature of the sector. It is surprising therefore, that the sector and its working practices remain so under-theorised.

Aulus Gellius originated the modern use of 'classical' and 'humanities'. His Attic Nights contain information on many aspects of antiquity, and preserve much early Latin literature that would otherwise be lost; they also offer personal reminiscences and vignettes of life in the second century AD.
