About this book
Oliver Burkeman starts from an unsettlingly practical fact: a person who lives to eighty has roughly four thousand weeks. Rather than promising a more efficient way to complete every task, he argues that endless optimisation can make life feel smaller and more anxious. Drawing on philosophy, psychology, history, and his own attempts at productivity, Burkeman examines attention, limits, procrastination, and meaningful commitment. His approach is conversational, skeptical of quick fixes, and full of concrete reframings. This is an argument-driven self-help book for readers who want to think critically about time rather than simply manage more of it.
