{"product_id":"rest-1","title":"Rest","description":"Sit back and relax and learn about why overworking and under resting can be harmful to yourself and your career.\n\n\"Rest is such a valuable book. If work is our national religion, Pang is the philosopher reintegrating our bifurcated selves.\"\n---Arianna Huffington, New York Times Book Review\n\nOverwork is the new normal. Rest is something to do when the important things are done—but they are never done. Looking at different forms of rest, from sleep to vacation, Silicon Valley futurist and business consultant Alex Soojung-Kim Pang dispels the myth that the harder we work the better the outcome. He combines rigorous scientific research with a rich array of examples of writers, painters, and thinkers—from Darwin to Stephen King—to challenge our tendency to see work and relaxation as antithetical. \"Deliberate rest,\" as Pang calls it, is the true key to productivity, and will give us more energy, sharper ideas, and a better life. Rest offers a roadmap to rediscovering the importance of rest in our lives, and a convincing argument that we need to relax more if we actually want to get more done.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1541617169\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1541617169.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Pang, Alex Soojung-Kim\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
