Der Bestsellerautor Cal Newport bietet eine ganz neue Sicht auf produktives und nachhaltiges Arbeiten – und zeigt, wie wir dies ganz ohne Überbelastung, Hektik und Burn-out bewältigen können. Auf Basis der Arbeitsgewohnheiten berühmter Denker – von Galileo und Isaac Newton bis hin zu Jane Austen und Georgia O’Keefe – verfasst Newport seine Philosophie der "langsamen Produktivität", einer nachhaltigen Alternative zur heillosen Überforderung, die unsere heutige Zeit prägt.

In seinem Bestseller "Konzentriert arbeiten" bewies Cal Newport bereits, dass ablenkungsfreie Konzentration die Arbeitseffektivität steigert und die Reduktion der technischen Geschäftigkeit enorm viel Zeit und Nerven einspart - so arbeitet es sich nicht nur effektiver, sondern auch glücklicher. In seinem neuen Buch "Digitaler Minimalismus" spinnt er diesen Gedanken noch weiter und zeigt, dass der Schlüssel zu einem guten Leben in der Hightech-Welt darin besteht, die Nutzung der Technologien in allen Bereichen des Lebens auf das Wesentlichste zu reduzieren.
