late-night TV binges or

more productive and
fulfilled in every aspect
of our lives, and shows

actually get more done we

relax more.Whether
through taking daily
naps, as Winston
Churchill did during the
Second World War,
spending a week alone in
a cabin like Bill Gates,
or simply walking,
`deliberate rest` as Pang
calls it is the key to
getting more done and
working better.Drawing on
emerging neuroscience,
Rest is packed full of
tips for upping our
downtime - from sleep to
hobbies to holidays. It`s
time to make a change to
the way we work, rest

For a hundred and fifty
years, between the plod
of packhorse trains and
the arrival of the
railways, canals were
the high-tech water
machine driving the
industrial revolution.
Amazing feats of
engineering, they
carried the rural into
the city and the urban
into the countryside,
and changed the lives of
everyone. And then, just
when their purpose was
extinguished by modern
transport, they were
saved from extinction and
repurposed as a `slow
highways` network, a
peaceful and countrywide
haven from our too-busy
age. Today, there are
more boats on the canals
than in their Victorian
heyday.Writer and slow
adventurer Jasper Winn
spent a year exploring
Britain`s waterways on
foot and by bike, in a
kayak and on narrowboats.
Along a thousand miles of
`wet roads and water
streets` he discovered a
world of wildlife
corridors, underground
adventures, the hardware
of heritage and history,
new boating communities,
endurance kayak races and
remote towpaths. He
shared journeys with some
of the last working boat
people and met the
anglers, walkers,
boaters, activists,
volunteers and eccentrics
who have made the
waterways their home. In
Britain most of us live
within five miles of a
canal, and reading this
book we will see them in
an entirely new light.

`Beautifully written... I
promise you will feel
more in tune with the
world around after
reading only one chapter
of Wild Signs and Star
Paths, let alone the
book in its entirety` -
Royal Institute of
Navigation `A beautifully
written almanac of tricks
and tips that we`ve lost
along the way` - Observer
Tristan Gooley, author
of the internationally
bestselling How To Read
Water and The Walker`s
Guide to Outdoor Clues &
Signs, shows how it is
possible to achieve a
level of outdoors
awareness that will
enable you to sense
direction from stars and
plants, forecast weather
from woodland sounds and
predict the next action
of an animal from its
body language -
instantly. Although once
common, this now rare
awareness would be
labelled by many as a
`sixth sense`. We have
become so distanced from
this way of experiencing
our environment that it
may initially seem hard
to believe that it is
possible, but Tristan
Gooley uses a collection
of `keys` to show how
everyone can develop this
ability and enjoy the
outdoors in an exciting
way - one that is both
new and ancient.
