Summary: An important book
Review: When I received this book from my aunt I was a little taken aback. Just because I had mentioned to her that I couldn't be bothered writing thank-you letters to everyone for this years Christmas presents! Anyway I started reading this book and found it a very insightful and important look at laziness and its supposed causes and effects. I have to say that I was impressed by the way the author gets to the core of the problem and sheds new light on lack of motivation, loss of energy and other factors which contribute to so-called laziness. It isn't the easiest read you'll ever have but taking up the challenge will surely prove worthwhile. Sadly I didn't manage to finish the book.
