SynopsisLike so many of us, including most of America` s workforce, and nearly twothirds of all university students, Andrew Santella procrastinates. Concerned about his habit, but not quite ready to give it up, he set out to learn all he could about the human tendency to delay. He studied history` s greatest procrastinators to gain insights into human behavior, and also, he writes, to kill time, `research being the best way to avoid real work.`
He talked with psychologists, philosophers, and priests. He visited New Orleans` French Quarter, home to a shrine to the patron saint of procrastinators. And at the home of Charles Darwin outside London, he learned why the great naturalist delayed writing his masterwork for more than two decades.
Drawing on an eclectic mix of historical case studies in procrastination
