- The Art of Self-Restraint in an Age of Excess

af Svend Brinkmann
The Joy of Missing Out af Svend Brinkmann
Bag om The Joy of Missing Out

'Because you're worth it', proclaims the classic cosmetics ad. 'Just do it!' implores the global sports retailer. Everywhere we turn, we are constantly encouraged to experience as much as possible, for as long as possible, in as many ways as possible. FOMO - Fear of Missing Out - has become a central preoccupation in a world fixated on the never-ending pursuit of gratification and self-fulfilment. But this pursuit can become a treadmill leading nowhere. How can we break out of it? In this refreshing book, bestselling Danish philosopher and psychologist Svend Brinkmann reveals the many virtues of missing out on the constant choices and temptations that dominate our experience-obsessed consumer society. By cultivating self-restraint and celebrating moderation we can develop a more fulfilling way of living that enriches ourselves and our fellow humans and protects the planet we all share - in short, we can discover the joy of missing out.

Den danske professor, Svend Brinkmann, blev for alvor kendt i forbindelse med udgivelsen af bogen ”Stå fast”, der handler om den udviklingstvang, som Svend Brinkmann mener præger vores kultur og samfund negativt. Bogen indeholder en guide bestående af syv trin, hvori læseren får gode råd og redskaber til, hvordan en mere realistisk livsindstilling opnås uden alt for egen uhæmmet positiv tænkning.
