Slow Productivity reads like a collection of haphazardly and lazily tied together anecdotes, just long enough that it could be published. While I’m familiar with books in the genre that are similar, this comes across as perhaps the least effective or moving of the bunch. As an argument, it’s wholly lacking in substance.
The crux of the book is do fewer things, work at a “natural pace” (hopefully you know what that is!), and obsess over quality. You got the thought in one sentence. There is some discussion that slow productivity is like slow food, but you’d get more out of reading about the history of slow food than from this book.
