Andrew Smart wants you to sit and do nothing much more often – and he has the science to explain why.
At every turn we’re pushed to do more, faster and more efficiently: that drumbeat resounds throughout our wage-slave society. Multitasking is not only a virtue, it’s a necessity. Books such as Getting Things Done, The One Minute Manager, and The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People regularly top the bestseller lists, and have spawned a considerable industry.
But Andrew Smart argues that slackers may have the last laugh. The latest neuroscience shows that the “culture of effectiveness” is not only ineffective, it can be harmful to your well-being. He makes a compelling case – backed by science – that filling life with activity at work and at home actually hurts your brain.
A survivor of corporate-mandated “Six Sigma” training to improve efficiency, Smart has channeled a self-described “loathing” of the time-management industry into a witty, informative and wide-ranging book that draws on the most recent research into brain power. Use it to explain to bosses, family, and friends why you need to relax – right now.

I read this book several months ago, and it’s really really good. The author is very scientific in his approach and evidence based, which is a large part of why the book is so good, and not some fluffy self help tome full of BS. It is also short and entertaining; you’ll rip through it in a day or two.

So this audiobook file has some issues when used on a media device(like an ipod or iphone). It stops about 2 hours in, and then refuses to go forward past that point. You can’t skip or move it forward. It works on the computer though.

Excellent book with great points, scientific references and thought provoking end.
I also like how the author didn’t make it unnecessarily LONG.
