A Kirkus Most Anticipated Book of Fall 2024 We see notebooks everywhere we go. But where did these indispensable implements come from? How did they revolutionize our lives? And how can using a notebook help change the way you think? In this wide-ranging history, Roland Allen reveals how the notebook became our most dependable and versatile tool for creative thinking. He tells the notebook stories of Leonardo and Frida Kahlo, Isaac Newton and Marie Curie, and writers from Chaucer to Henry James; shows how Darwin developed his theory of evolution in tiny pocket books and Agatha Christie plotted a hundred murders in scrappy exercise books; and introduces a host of cooks, kings, sailors, fishermen, musicians, engineers, politicians, adventurers, and mathematicians, all of whom used their notebooks as a space to think—and in doing so, shaped the modern world. In an age of AI and digital overload, the humble notebook is more relevant than ever. Allen shows how bullet points can combat ADHD, journals can ease PTSD, and patient diaries soften the trauma of reawakening from coma. The everyday act of moving a pen across paper, he finds, can have profound consequences, changing the way we think and feel: making us more creative, more productive—and maybe even happier.Ver libro

This isn't a self-help book. It's a mental junk drawer — full of quotes, chaos, forklift wisdom, and a guy just trying to make sense of the noise. No chapters. No index. No roadmap. You'll find meaning, then lose it again. And maybe that's the point. It's part philosophy, part humor, part existential napkin scribble. If you've ever argued with God in a break room or felt like socks next to the couch might symbolize existential dread... you're in the right place.Ver libro
