简介 Intro

《Your Brain at Work: Strategies for Overcoming Distraction, Regaining Focus, and Working Smarter All Day Long》—— 戴维•罗克（David Rock）

A researcher and consultant burrows deep inside the heads of one modern two-career couple to examine how each partner processes the workday—revealing how a more nuanced understanding of the brain can allow us to better organize, prioritize, recall, and sort our daily lives.

Emily and Paul are the parents of two young children, and professionals with different careers. Emily is the newly promoted vice president of marketing at a large corporation; Paul works from home or from clients\’ offices as an independent IT consultant. Their days are filled with a bewildering blizzard of emails, phone calls, more emails, meetings, projects, proposals, and plans. Just staying ahead of the storm has become a seemingly insurmountable task.

In Your Brain at Work, Dr. David Rock goes inside Emily and Paul\’s brains to see how they function as each attempts to sort, prioritize, organize, and act on the vast quantities of information they receive in one typical day. Dr. Rock is an expert on how the brain functions in a work setting. By analyzing what is going on in their heads, he offers solutions Emily and Paul (and all of us) can use to survive and thrive in today\’s hyperbusy work environment—and still feel energized and accomplished at the end of the day.

In Your Brain at Work, Dr. Rock explores issues such as:

why our brains feel so taxed, and how to maximize our mental resources
why it\’s so hard to focus, and how to better manage distractions
how to maximize the chance of finding insights to solve seemingly insurmountable problems
how to keep your cool in any situation, so that you can make the best decisions possible
how to collaborate more effectively with others
why providing feedback is so difficult, and how to make it easier
how to be more effective at changing other people\’s behavior

and much more.

读者评论 Readers\’ Comments

理解大脑，改变大脑，才能更效率的使用大脑。

历久弥新的好书还涉及正念超乎预期

最大的收获是不再对自己的总是走神的大脑绝望了。里面说到的对于孩子的奖励，地位的提升比物质可能更有效果还蛮想实验的，但找不到实验对象

非常实用，只有了解大脑的局限和机制，才能有的放矢，用不同的方式和效能管理

很棒的一本书，带来很多新的灵感与视角。比起说大脑是一台机器，我更觉得大脑像一片森林，郁郁葱葱，生机勃勃，有自己的生态循环和生存局限。我们每多了解一些它，就多了解更多自我和世界。
