The Managed heart: Commercialization of Human Feeling, by Arlie Russell Hochschild, was first published in 1979 and a new preface was added in 1983. A 20th Anniversary addition with a new afterword added by the author was published in 2003. It was reissued in 2012 with a new preface. It has been translated into German, Chinese, Japanese, and Polish. Hochschild's text is seminal and scholars like Sarah J. Tracy and Stephen Fineman have expanded on her concept of emotional labor.
