the battle for survival in America

i am searching for a good work/life balance book:
i've read "GTD: the art of stress-free productivity",
Seven Signal's "Getting Real", skimmed the "age of speed".
Yet to finish "Prefactoring" by Kevin Pugh,
and thinking about reading the "4-hour work week".

A new book is set to come out:
"Why Work Sucks and How to Fix It: No Schedules, No Meetings, No Joke--the Big Idea That's Already Transforming the Way We Work"

and one that seems so interesting:
"Simpleology: The Simple Science of Getting What You Want"

i never used to resort to self-help books so much, but uh, i feel like this guy (sometimes):
"Sure, you can work ANYTIME! If you feel like it, work on Sunday at midnight! Sure! No stress! No pressure! Just be on-call, at work, any time, or all the time. What's really silly is that business has some people buffaloed into thinking this is what they really want.

This is why I don't own a cell phone. It's GREAT being unavailable."

[ha, I found him on Amazon]

the fact is it's a war. and people need help. me, included.
maybe soon, it is time to put away the books, and grab the big guns.
