In sociology, particularly in sociology of work, there is a very important question of improving the work output in such a way that both the prosperity of the firm and employees' job satisfaction would be secured. The interest taken by management in employees is one of ways leading towards a success of the firm. A very specific role in shaping employees' attitudes is played by the so called humanisation of work, being a very important factor of employees' motivating, connected with the theory of human needs

The authoress provides a review of opinions on faith and religion as expressed by Kotarbinski throughout his life. The early views are marked by respect for the moral import of Catholicism and a strong conviction that church metaphysics is a fiction. In later years Kotarbinski makes a plea for creating elementary schools that offer no religious instruction, for clear separation of religious training from the teaching of scientific topics, for elimination from academic curricula any forms of thought purporting that prayer can change the course of events in nature. Some of his remarks would be considered politically incorrect today, like his quip that a European should not imitate a savage who uses his drums to stop the eclipse of the sun by the moon.

The trustworthy guardian is a person that can be relied on in difficult circumstances, one who will always show sympathy and offer help when they are needed. A consistent practice of being a trustworthy guardian is difficult due to several dilemmas. One concerns the question if support is due only to the deserving or also to the despicable characters. After all, by aiding a blameworthy character one becomes an accomplice to his malice. Another dilemma is if one should favour the nearest and dearest, or whether one should be impartial between those whom he loves and hates. Finally a trustworthy guardian may be torn between following the strongest ethical impulse and the desire to act efficiently. Kotarbinski valued efficiency very high, and made specific recommendation for its practice in a theory which he called praxiology.
