For most of us, overwork is the new normal. Resting means late-night TV binges or hours spent on social media. We never truly recharge.
In this revelatory book, Silicon Valley consultant Alex Soojung-Kim Pang offers a way for us to be more productive and fulfilled in all areas of our lives. Working better does not mean putting in longer hours: it means working less and resting better. Whether through daily naps, as Winston Churchill did in the Second World War, spending a week alone in a cabin like Bill Gates, or simply walking or playing a game, 'deliberate rest' is the key to getting more done.
Drawing on emerging neuroscience, Rest is packed with tips for upping our downtime - from sleep to hobbies to holidays. It's time to change the way we work, rest and play.

Condición: Muy bueno. : En nuestra economía global 24/7, el descanso se siente como un lujo en el mejor de los casos y una debilidad en el peor. Vemos el trabajo y el descanso como competidores, pero ¿y si en realidad son socios en una vida productiva y equilibrada? Combinando una rigurosa investigación científica con ejemplos de escritores, pintores y pensadores, desde Darwin hasta Stephen King, el futurista y consultor de negocios de Silicon Valley, Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, expone cómo hemos subestimado el poder del descanso para nuestro éxito. Aunque es tan natural como respirar, también es una habilidad que todos podemos aprender para impulsar nuestra creatividad y productividad. Lleno de consejos para aumentar nuestro tiempo de inactividad, desde el sueño hasta los pasatiempos y las vacaciones, 'Rest' es una nueva hoja de ruta para encontrar energía e inspiración renovadas y hacer más cosas.
