Drawing on the insights of both ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists, and spiritual teachers, Oliver Burkeman delivers an entertaining, humorous, practical, and ultimately profound guide to time and time management. Rejecting the futile modern obsession with 'getting everything done,' he introduces listeners to tools for constructing a meaningful life by embracing finitude, showing how many of the unhelpful ways people have come to think about time aren't inescapable, unchanging truths, but choices made as individuals and as a society, and that people could do things differently.
