Description

Bodil Jönsson's Ten Thoughts about Time explores how our relationship with time has evolved in the Western world. The introduction of measured, accurate timekeeping had a profound impact, shifting from being a tool to becoming a master.

The equation Time = Money was initially met with resistance, as people felt it created an imbalance. Since then, much of our lives have revolved around the notion of 'saving time'. Despite advances in technology and increased lifespan, many people feel they have no time. This book offers a fresh perspective on how to approach time, one that prioritises humanity while navigating the fast pace of modern life.

With brevity, humour and insightful commentary, Jönsson challenges conventional wisdom about time management. The result is a thought-provoking exploration that could inspire a new way of thinking about our relationship with time.
