Google "Information overload" and you get millions of results..but none directed at the knowledge worker. This book fills that gap amazingly well. Most of us avid readers love books, have a shelf of unread books but don't know why we are such knowledge wores. This book struck home. A must read and easy read(just 184 pages)

Nice book about information (theory), brains and strategies to filter information to prevent your brains from crashing. I think I will take some time in the future to execute the strategies suggested in the book.
