review 1: i didn't even plan on reading this little book, i found it on my table and was curious about some self help bogus book and wondered who would waste time reading something like this. It takes about 1.5 hours to read from start to finish and i thought it was pretty interesting in the end.here is one of the funner exercises from the book.Multitasking is worse than a lie1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 23 24 25 26 27 in the first approach try writing each character in the sentence above as you count the numbers below and time yourself as you do it.....the layout would be the same as above but your hand would be writing on separate lines, "M1U2L3....", you just have to shift between the top sentence and the lower numbers...at the same timewhat's yo... moreur time?in the next attempt, write out the entire sentence and immediately count from 1 to 27 below.what's your time?most people are surprised by the time difference.
review 2: В легкой и простой для понимания форме читателям показывается собственно миф о многозадачности. На самом деле мы по прежнему не можем делать несколько дел одновременно - мы лишь переключаемся между задачами, зачастую теряя время и силы на эти переключения. less
