The art of stillness [sound recording] : adventures in going nowhere / Pico Iyer.

Iyer, Pico. (Author). Read by the author. (Cast).

Summary:

The Art of Stillness considers the unexpected adventure of staying put and reveals a counter-intuitive truth: The more ways people have to connect, the more they seem desperate to unplug. There is even a growing trend toward observing an 'Internet sabbath' every week, turning off online connections from Friday night to Monday morning and reviving those ancient customs known as family meals and conversation.
