Em’s Reviews > Slow Productivity: The Lost Art of Accomplishment Without Burnout > Status Update

I held off on this book because so many reviews stated something like, "must be nice to have control over your schedule," which most of us don't. However, I think some of those readers failed to take into account that you can still take away knowledge, even if it's not a "how to" book. I like that Newport is reflective about the modern workplace. He, too, is bound by schedules and deadlines.
