"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.

“Peirce tells the intriguing story of the battle for shorter hours ... and why now is finally the moment for a breakthrough that would give us all more of the precious gift of time.” — LINDA McQUAIG, journalist and author You can’t have a healthy economy with an unhealthy work force. Work Less proposes ways to reduce work hours and keep workers happier, healthier, and more productive. Recent years have revealed just how stressed out many workers are. While the trend to longer hours has been developing for several decades, the trend’s effects have been aggravated during the pandemic by the growing use of Zoom and other new technologies for meetings with clients, customers, and co-workers. Exhausted and fed up, today’s workers are starting to insist on shorter hours and greater flexibility as to where they do their work. There is growing consensus that the forty-hour week, the norm since the 1940s, has outlived its usefulness. And there is an urgent need for new work schedules that adequately reflect the far greater intensity of work today, as well as the greater family demands on a labour force made up of almost fifty percent women, who bear the brunt of domestic duties. Work Less offers practical scheduling suggestions to employers and workers and numerous policy options for government policy-makers to improve working conditions.

"With well-chosen data, Siegel demonstrates how countries like The Netherlands have 'created a prosperous economy with low unemployment' due to letting employees work fewer hours…. To Save the Earth, Work Less is an urgent, thought-provoking resource …. This is a quick, potent read that will spark conversation and provide food for thought on essential questions of the American dream, what it actually means to feel satisfied in life, and nothing less than the fate of the world." --Booklife Creating Jobs? Americans believe we need rapid economic growth to create jobs and avoid unemployment—but that is because we do not have the choice of working shorter hours. The Dutch have a better model. By law, they can choose to work part time, which means they avoid unemployment by creating the amount of work people actually want rather than by creating full-time jobs. We have reached the point where economic growth no longer brings significant benefits. International comparisons show that higher income no longer improves a nation’s happiness, health, or educational achievement significantly after it reaches less than two-thirds of the current American level. And postwar America’s push to promote automobile use to stimulate the economy actually made our cities less livable. The average American employee works 25% more than the average Dutch employee, but the available measures of well-being show that all the extra work doesn’t do us any good. In the course of this century, most nations of the world could emerge from poverty and have a comfortable middle-class standard of living if we can avoid ecological crisis. But that is a big “if.” To create a sustainable economy with a high quality of life, it is essential for the world to follow the Dutch model of shorter work hours and slower growth rather than the postwar American model of long work hours and rapid growth. But no mainstream politician is talking about the crucial issue of work time.

You and your company can work less, be more productive, and make time for what's really important. The idea of success embraced by the global economy means being always-on, never missing an opportunity, and outworking your peers. But working ever-longer hours is't sustainable for companies or individuals. Fatigue-induced mistakes, whether in the operating room or factory line, cost companies billions, and overwork alienates and burns out valuable employees. But what if there is another way? Shorter tells the story of entrepreneurs and leaders all over the world who have discovered how to shrink the workweek without cutting salaries or sacrificing productivity or revenues. They show that by reducing distractions, eliminating inefficiencies, and creating time for high-quality focus and collaboration, 4-day workweeks can boost recruitment and retention, make leaders more thoughtful and companies more sustainable, and improve work-life balance. Using design thinking, a business and product development process pioneered in Silicon Valley, futurist and consultant Alex Pang creates a step-by-step guide for readers to redesign their workdays.
