The art of stillness : adventures in going nowhere / Pico Iyer ; photography by Eydís Einarsdóttir. by Iyer, Pico. TED Books/Simon & Schuster, 2014. Call #: 179.9 I97a Subjects Quietude.   Simplicity.   Mind and body.   Spiritual life.   Spirituality.   Information society -- Psychological aspects.   Technology -- Psychological aspects.   Stress (Psychology) -- Prevention. ISBN:  9781476784724 1476784728 Edition:  First TED Books hardcover edition. Description:  74 p. : col. ill.; 19 cm. Notes:  "A TED original"--Jacket. Summary:  "The Art of Stillness paints a picture of why so many--from Marcel Proust to Mahatma Ghandi to Emily Dickinson--have found richness in stillness. Ultimately, Iyer shows that, in this age of constant movement and connectedness, perhaps staying in one place is a more exciting prospect, and a greater necessity than ever before. In 2013, Pico Iyer gave a blockbuster TED Talk. This lyrical and inspiring book expands on a new idea, offering a way forward for all those feeling affected by the frenetic pace of our modern world."--Publisher.
