About this product
Product Information
No time for this, no time for that? This book can help! Bodil Jonsson observes how in the Western world the arrival of measured, accurate timekeeping became first our tool, and then our master. The wives of labourers rebelled when first told their husbands would be paid in money, for their time, rather than the older custom of payment in kind for a job of work done. They felt that the equation Time = Money was somehow dangerous. Since then a large part of our lives have come to revolve around the notion of 'saving time'. We live longer on average than ever before, yet most of us feel we have no time. Technology promises instant results, cell phones and computers should give us the leisure we crave, but the speed of society increases to match the savings, and we end up running harder to stay in the same place. Neither pure philosophy, still less physics, this is not a business book on time-management either, but has elements of all three. With brevity, humour and admirable insight Jonsson shows us the way to feel less pressured and enjoy life more, preserving our humanity while working and living in the fast lane. It could inspire a whole new relationship with Time.

I think this item (which was one of four bought at the same time as part of a special offer) had to be re-despatched. I told them it didn't arrive with the other books so they made arrangements to get it to me ASAP. They said it would be despatched within 48 hours and it was despatched within 24. I had it on my doorstep in 3 days, in very good condition as described. Very happy with the price and the service, highly recommended seller. Very professional.
