The Procrastination Equation: How to Stop Putting Things Off and Start Getting Stuff Done: Ph.d., Piers Steel: Books. According to Steel, an expert on procrastination, about 95 percent of us procrastinate. About a quarter of us are chronic procrastinators, having finely honed the art of putting things off. But why do we do it? It’s not like we don’t know there are things we should be doing and things we shouldn’t. So why do we spend time doing the wrong things? Steel’s explanation, which should come as a relief to some, is that procrastination is an evolutionary feature, a sort of biological imperative. Drawing on research from a variety of sources, Steel takes us through the history of procrastination, showing how it has become, in modern times, a serious problem that leads to increased health troubles, loss of productivity, and unnecessary poverty or depression. Fortunately, he also suggests ways we can stop procrastinating and get ourselves on track. A useful, eye-opening book. Now, if only the people who most need to read it could find the time to do so. --David Pitt
