With tongue in cheek, Sloth guides readers step-by-step toward a life of noncommittal inertia. ""You have the right to be lazy,"" writes Wasserstein. ""You can choose not to respond. You can choose not to move."" Readers will find out the importance of Lethargiosis--the process of eliminating energy and drive, the vital first step in becoming a sloth. To help you attain the perfect state of indolent bliss, the book offers a wealth of self-help aids.
