Sidestepping the question for the moment, I'd like to suggest a small
pamphlet I've been reading, "Sabbath, The Day of Eternity", by Rabbi Aryeh
Kaplan, published by NCSY/UOJC. He discusses the meaning of our day of rest,
what we rest from, and why. I have found it to be quite fascinating.
It might lead you further in this topic.

Some other works by Rabbi Kaplan include :
Handbook of Jewish Thought, a book;
Waters of Eden, a pamphlet on "mikveh" (a ritualarium);
Jerusalem, Eye of the Universe, a pamphlet;
The Living Torah, a translation of the Torah, based on the commentaries, with
    pictures and maps for illustration.
