"For anyone interested in today's society this is a must read. A brilliant book which brings empirical understanding to our complex lifestyles." - Alan McWalter, now has a portfolio of business interests having previously been Group Marketing Director at Marks & Spencer, and a Director of Woolworths and Comet
Rising affluence and greater freedom have brought us more choices, more opportunities, and richer lifestyles than ever before. However, progress is a double-edged sword: our expectations are now greater than ever, there is never enough time, and the great majority of us suffer from choice overload. Life feels too hectic, too pressured - too complicated.
Would we really want to turn back the clock to simpler times? Absolutely not - today we are richer, healthier, and have more freedom than any previous generation. But to reap the benefits of progress, we urgently need to find ways to cope with the complexities we face.
In complicated Lives, Michael Willmott and William Nelson presents an in-depth analysis of the challenges and pressure that we are exposed to in our everyday lives. Offering strategies and insights for avoiding the malaise of modernity while exploring the opportunities the 21st century has to offer, this book takes you on fascinating journey of self-discovery into the realities of life in today's complex, multi-channel world.
