Deep work
Newport, Cal2016
Book
A mix of cultural criticism and actionable advice, Deep Work takes the reader on a journey through memorable stories--from Carl Jung building a stone tower in the woods to focus his mind, to a social media pioneer buying a round-trip business class ticket to Tokyo to write a book free from distraction in the air--and no-nonsense advice, such as the claim that most serious professionals should quit social media and that you should practice being bored. Deep Work is an indispensable guide to anyone seeking focused success in a distracted world.
