000434952 520__ $$aA former White House director of economic policy makes the outrageous argument that we don't really want to relax--we want to compete. We think we will be happy when we have some downtime--when we can finally go on vacation, disconnect, shut down. But in this provocative book, Todd Buchholz will convince you that what you really want is to chase your tail--even if you never catch it. Weaving in everything from neuroeconomics to evolutionary biology to Renaissance art to General Motors, Buchholz will convince you that the race to compete has not only made us taller and smarter, it's what we love and need.--From publisher description.
