Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
3.0
Flow is an allusive concept but this book does a decent job of establishing the basic concepts. It's when you're completely absorbed in a project and find you lose track of yourself and time while you're so focussed.
The book helps to understanding the underlying principles but I'm dubious about whether it would actually help you acheive a state of flow. If it was that easy we'd all spend the bulk of our time compeltely lost in satisfying projects.
I've given this book three stars because I felt like it was pretty heavily padded out in places to justify putting it in a book. This could have been an excellent 60-80 page book but instead was a little bit flabby in places.
