This book is the story of what she discovered--and of how her search for answers became a journey toward a life of less stress and more leisure.\u003cbr\u003e Schulte's findings are illuminating, puzzling, and, at times, maddening: Being overwhelmed is even affecting the size of our brains. But she also encounters signs of real progress--evidence that what the ancient Greeks called \"the good life\" is attainable after all. Schulte talks to companies who are inventing a new kind of workplace; travels to countries where policies support office cultures that don't equate shorter hours with laziness (and where people actually get more done); meets couples who have figured out how to share responsibilities. Enlivened by personal anecdotes, humor, and hope, \u003ci\u003eOverwhelmed\u003c\/i\u003e is a book about modern life--a revelation of the misguided beliefs and real stresses that have made leisure feel like a thing of the past, and of how we can find time for it in the present.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrigid Schulte is an award-winning journalist for \"The Washington Post\" and \"The Washington Post Magazine,\" and was part of a team that won the Pulitzer Prize.
