Another book that talks about similar issues is Rapt: Attention and the Focused Life by Winifred Gallagher. It is written in a less academic way but no less interesting / inspiring. In fact she got me right at the beginning when she said something along the lines of 'your life is the sum of what you've focused on up to now. If you'd focused on something else it would be very different' - obvious, I realise, but actually how many of us really take care to choose what to focus on rather than just drifting through life.
