There's a lot to think about here. I picked this up because I'm interested in looking at time, sort of abstractly. Honore does a great job of summing up the history of time. He also gives us his own personal struggle with speed that was the impetus for exploring the various slow movements around the world. He takes us through Slow cities, slow food, slow sex, slow music, slow education etc. While reading this book, I thought - maybe the answer to everything is just to go slower. But of course, in reality that would make me nuts. The concept I liked most was "tempo giusto" - finding the right speed.
