Books by David Allen

One of the most popular methodologies on time management, this book explains how to simplify workload and reduce clutter. The process explained in the book is very simple and easy to follow for the most part. The part which I didn't like was that the author took all the processes a bit too seriously and formalizing it through various checklists and folders. I think there is a better way of making it easier and more casual and taking greater help of technology - a trick which the author missed in the book.

David Allen has a great many good points in this book, but it feels very disjointed. The book has no flow and it feels like a heap of ideas. That may very well be the author's intention, but for a productivity book, it may have been a better methodology to make larger chapters focusing on particular problems and elaborating upon them.
