December 7 2016 cover of The Almanac

My local paper, The Almanac, has a nice article about Rest.

What comes to mind when you think about rest? Reclining on the sofa with episodes of your favorite TV series queued up, courtesy of Netflix? Visiting your Facebook page, or gossiping with colleagues during a break away from your desk?

Ask Menlo Park author Alex Soojung-Kim Pang how he thinks about rest and you may be in for a few surprising insights from a man who has over the last few years thoroughly researched the topic, discovering how great achievers in the arts, sciences and politics have benefited from knowing the value of rest.

It even got the cover of the newspaper (though to be totally honest, most of this weeks’ issue is real estate ads, articles about pop-up stores, and notes about the police blotter).

You can also read it on Issuu, or download the PDF. (The Almanac ran a nice article about my last book too.)
