520 |a The author argues that we can be more successful in all areas of our lives by recognizing the importance of rest: working better does not mean working more, it means working less and resting better. Treating rest as a passive activity secondary to work undermines our chances for a rewarding and meaningful life. Whether by making space for daily naps, as Winston Churchill did during World War II; going on hours-long strolls like Charles Darwin; or spending a week alone in a cabin like Bill Gates; pursuing what the author calls "deliberate rest" is the true key to fulfillment and creative success. Drawing on scientific evidence and historical examples, this book overturns everything our culture has taught us about work and shows that only by resting better can we start living better.--  |c From publisher's description.
