В книгата ще откриете: Защо не можем да работим съсредоточено по 8 часа зад бюро? Защо не успяваме да следим съвестно всеки слайд от презентация? Защо в три часа следобед обикновено ни се спи?

Each painting is reproduced in large format, with recent, high production photography allowing for dramatic close-ups with Caravaggio's ingenious details of looks and gestures. Five introductory chapters ... |
