内容説明
Why did cats replace dogs as America's most popular pet in the 1980s? Why is the sound bite replacing political oratory? Why are juvenile suicide rates soaring? The answer, explains Lee Burns, is that there is too little time - to walk the dog, think, or pay attention to our children. Using humourous anacdotes and revealing statistics, the author shows how our obsession with time-efficiency affects virtually all spheres of daily life, from the pressure to cram in evermore information to the search for a quicker dinner.
