Daniel Pink: When - The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Nevro
(see times)
Everyone knows that timing is everything. But we don't know much about timing itself. Our lives are a never-ending stream of "when" decisions: when to start a business, schedule a class, get serious about a person. Yet we make those decisions based on intuition and guesswork.
Timing, it's often assumed, is an art.
In When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing, Daniel Pink shows that timing is really a science. Daniel, the #1 bestselling author of Drive and To Sell Is Human, unlocks the scientific secrets to good timing to help you flourish at work, at school and at home. Drawing on a rich trove of research from psychology, biology and economics, Daniel reveals how best to live, work and succeed.
How can we use the hidden patterns of the day to build the ideal schedule? Why do certain breaks dramatically improve student test scores? How can we turn a stumbling beginning into a fresh start? Why should we avoid going to the hospital in the afternoon? Why is singing in time with other people as good for you as exercise? And what is the ideal time to quit a job, switch careers or get married?
In When, which will be released Jan. 9, Daniel distills cutting-edge research and data on timing and synthesizes them into a fascinating, readable narrative packed with irresistible stories and practical takeaways that give readers compelling insights into how we can live richer, more engaged lives.

Daniel H. Pink is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestsellers Drive, To Sell is Human and A Whole New Mind. His books have won multiple awards and have been translated into 35 languages. He lives with his family in Washington, DC.
