Book excerpt: "Rest is such a valuable book. If work is our national religion, Pang is the philosopher reintegrating our bifurcated selves."---Arianna Huffington, New York Times Book Review Overwork 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuing the enchanting tale of a clan of miniature creatures called the People and their epic battle for a safe new home ... Following their travels on the Ark, the intrepid Willow People are now settled but face a new and unexpected challenge: the giant head of a great snake trapped in an underground cavern. His body stretches across the world, his tail lies far from his head in some unknown, unseen land. Because snakes can only die when they curl up with their tails near their heads, he must live for ever, imprisoned in the gloomy depths of the earth. The desire to curl up consumes him, and the People of the Willow Clan are overwhelmed by the call to find his tail. But others predict the end of the world if ever the tail meets the head. Once again the dauntless youngsters of the Willow Clan will need more than courage to win through ... The sequence that begins with 'The Ark of the People' and concludes with 'The Spell to Save the Golden Snake'.
