History & Invention of Sitting
History & Invention of Sitting
Tracing the evolution of sitting from ancient contemplation to modern office chairs, History and Invention of Sitting examines how a simple act became a symbol of productivity—and eventually, a health crisis. What was once relaxation has transformed into a sedentary lifestyle, leading to office syndrome.
This book explores how sitting shaped cultures, productivity, and health, and how it’s now prompting the rise of standing desks and ergonomic solutions.
