Paperback. Zustand: Good. SLAMED: Definition (expr.) extremely busy, not having enough time to get everything done, having many responsibilities, unable to do some things because too busy with others, task saturated, overwhelmed with work. The effect of working more simply yields more work. Everyone we talk to feels Slammed, and we're betting that you do too. If you are one of the millions of people who is burning the candle at both ends, juggling the demands of career and family, sacrificing health and sleep, drowning in to do lists or stooping under the burden of incredible responsibility, then this book is for you. And, if you think you are one of the rare few who believes you can actually manage a Slammed lifestyle indefinitely-this is a must read. Warning: This is not a time management book. We can't time manage our way out of the Slammed lifestyle, but that doesn't mean there is no solution.

We offer some simple, practical (and some harder, more complex) solutions for being more productive, improving the quality of your work, leading your business, and living your best un-Slammed life.…

As the income gap between developed and developing nations grows, so grows the cacophony of voices claiming that the quest to find a simple recipe for economic growth has failed. Getting Better, in sharp contrast, reports the good news about global progress. Economist Charles Kenny argues against development naysayers by pointing to the evidence of widespread improvements in health, education, peace, liberty--and even happiness. Kenny shows how the spread of cheap technologies, such as vaccines and bed nets, and ideas, such as political rights, has transformed the world. He also shows that by understanding this transformation, we can make the world an even better place to live. That's not to say that life is grand for everyone, or that we don't have a long way to go. But improvements have spread far, and, according to Kenny, they can spread even further.…
