NYT Bestselling Author Daniel H. Pink To Speak In Newtown
New York Times bestselling author Daniel H. Pink will speak in Newtown about his new book that explores the science of timing.

New York Times bestselling author Daniel H. Pink will be speaking in Newtown about his new book, “When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing” on Saturday, Feb.24. The Newtown Bookshop is hosting the event, which will be held at 1:15 p.m. at the Newtown Theatre. The talk will be followed by a book signing at the Newtown Bookshop.
According to the Bookshop:
In When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing, Daniel H. Pink shows that timing is really a science. Drawing on a rich trove of research from psychology, biology, and economics, Pink reveals how best to live, work, and succeed. How can we use the hidden patterns of the day to build the ideal schedule?
Why do certain breaks dramatically improve student test scores? How can we turn a stumbling beginning into a fresh start? Why should we avoid going to the hospital in the afternoon? Why is singing in time with other people as good for you as exercise? And what is the ideal time to quit a job, switch careers, or get married?
In When, Pink distills cutting-edge research and data on timing and synthesizes them into a fascinating,
readable narrative packed with irresistible stories and practical takeaways that give readers compelling insights into how we can live richer, more engaged lives.
Tickets are $30, and include a copy of the book. For tickets, visit www.newtownbookshop.com or call 215-968- 2400.
