In this timely manifesto, the authors of a New York Times bestseller reject the notion that long hours and aggressive hustle are essential for business success. Building on their previous work, they present a bold strategy for creating an ideal company culture, termed "the calm company." This approach directly addresses the chaos, anxiety, and stress that affect millions of workplaces and workers daily. Long hours and excessive workloads have become badges of honor, but the authors argue that they should be seen as marks of foolishness. This issue extends beyond large organizations; individuals, contractors, and solopreneurs are also experiencing burnout. The key to improved productivity lies not in working longer but in reducing waste and minimizing distractions and stress. Fried and Hansson advocate for celebrating Calm over Crazy. Their own company culture at Basecamp has embraced "Calm" for twenty years, providing proof of its effectiveness. This book serves as a practical and inspiring guide, showcasing their insights and experiences. It offers a roadmap for managers and executives across industries to implement these principles, demonstrating that a more balanced approach to work is not only possible but beneficial for all.

With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, 'Rework' is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages.

Let's admit Things will go wrong online. No matter how carefully you design a site, no matter how much testing you do, customers still encounter problems. So how do you handle these inevitable breakdowns? With defensive design. In this book, the experts at 37signals (whose clients include Microsoft, Qwest, Monster.com, and Clear Channel) will show you how. Defensive design is like defensive driving brought to the Web. The same way drivers must always be on the lookout for slick roads, reckless drivers, and other dangerous scenarios, site builders must constantly search for trouble spots that cause visitors confusion and frustration. Good site defense can make or break the customer experience. In these pages, you'll see hundreds of real-world examples from companies like Amazon, Google, and Yahoo that show the right (and wrong) ways to get defensive. You'll learn 40 guidelines to prevent errors and rescue customers if a breakdown occurs. You'll also explore how to evaluate your own site's defensive design and improve it over the long term. This book is a must read for designers, programmers, copywriters, and any other site decision-makers who want to increase usability and customer satisfaction.
