![]() ![]() This is a shame as Flow is such a tremendous book. As mentioned above, a significant amount of material seemed to have been left off of the abridgement. I’m pretty sure that an unabridged copy of Flow doesn’t exist so until it does, do the reading thing instead.Īudio-Specific Content: I listened to the (very) abridged version of this title on two cassettes (less than two hours). ![]() I think this is a case in which the book is a better option. ![]() On the whole, I wasn’t very impressed with this version. I haven’t read the entire book but I believe the book does a better job than this abridged version. While the audiobook did an adequate job describing flow, it didn’t seem to do a good enough job of telling how to get into the flow state. In addition, anecdotes are offered to provide examples of the benefits of being in flow (as well as the additional stress and hardship associated with not consistently finding flow). Throughout the book, different voices tell stories of being in flow states. If you’re looking for me you would be well-advised to read the book instead. If you’re looking for a very high level overview of what Flow is then you’ll probably like this audiobook. However, Flow (the audiobook) is an extremely abridged very of the book that I didn’t think adequately captured the ideas in the book. I’ve read a good chunk of it and found it to be a very interesting and pragmatic concept. General Content: Flow (the book) is a wonderfully detailed treatise on optimal human performance and experience.
