Over 2,000,000 people read the first version.

Now, for the first time ever, Francesco Cirillo’s “deceptively simple” time-management method is available in a newly updated and revised hardcover book!

Filled with practical time-management advice, The Pomodoro Technique hardcover book is a godsend for procrastinators. The Wall Street Journal says the method can “help anyone to focus.”

The new version of the Pomodoro Technique includes a chapter on how to make the Technique work for you. Readers will also learn how to predict the time it takes to complete a task, monitor their productivity and set personal goals.

Having fun with time management might seem like an oxymoron to some but it’s actually possible with the Pomodoro Technique!

5.0 out of 5 stars No more multi-tasking

Even though folks think I am a time management guru this book put me to shame! It worked so well I was able to do three times as much. It does put to the death the multi-tasking principle and makes us all FOCUS. Wish that the worksheets were larger and more easily reproduced on a computer download. That would save me more time!

The timing yourself with a timer was very beneficial. I like the charts used inside the book.

SPOILER ALERT ! ! ! There's one useful concept here and that is the practice of setting yourself a fixed number of minutes to work and then a fixed number of minutes to rest. This way there's always light at the end of the tunnel; you don't feel daunted by an insurmountable task. In fact there is no tunnel; it's more like being on a bridge or a trestle: you can see light all around. I find that very simple suggestion very helpful, but then the author goes of on this obsessive/compulsive anal retentive jag of keeping track of exactly how many work intervals it takes you accomplish each task and assumes it will take precisely that many every time you perform that task, which, after 45 yrs. in the aerospace biz, I know is a load of dingo's kidneys. Every manager since Pharaoh has wanted people to tell him precisely what would happen precisely when---and be fully committed to that commitment (pssst! Tony Robins called and he wants his fantasy back).

Like I said, one good idea and you don't need to buy the book for it. You can get eminently serviceable little plastic tomato timers from Amazon for half a pittance each. I got about four for work and home.

(P.S. Getting up and moving for a couple of minutes every half hour is also really good for you. Ask your doctor.)

4.0 out of 5 stars beautiful book

I like that this technique is simple. I am trying it out the past week or so. Still getting used to it.
I love the design of the book. Very simple and pretty. White hardcover with silver foil stamping on spine. Jacket is a nice white matte with glossy embossing for text and graphic. However there was a problem with the binding. There were some holes ripped in the center of the middle pages.
Other than that, I like the book, it was a good buy. Cheaper to buy on amazon than from the pomodoro website (I think the price is the same, but the shipping charges from Europe are too expensive).

Brilliant concept for learning a system of time valuing and management .... Non-judgmental, non-punitive, practical and easy to implement for even the worst of procrastinators! Easy enought to share with my granddaughter for her entrance to middle school (a technique not taught too early!!)

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2015
This is a great guide to the Pomodoro technique. The author includes a number of visual diagrams which can help visual learners pick up the Technique as well. The technique doesn't really help me in my work life. But it has helped immensely in my personal life especially with book reading.
