Book Synopsis

John Williams started his career in creative technology - as a developer on pioneering special effects software (including on-site work at Disney Feature Animation, LA) and broadcast automation for the BBC and others.

He became Digital Media CTO at a European startup incubator before moving to head up a media technology consultancy team at Deloitte. John left to consult independently to broadcasters around the world before writing his first bestselling book Screw Work Let's Play and founding The Ideas Lab which has now helped thousands of people to start a business they love. Screw Work Let's Play was selected by The Sunday Times as one of the top 6 hottest new self-help tomes and has now been translated into 10 languages.

And now announcing a completely revised, updated and expanded version with a new, stronger title - F**k Work Let's Play - for the world we find ourselves in now.

Life is fleeting; why waste it on work that has no meaning for you?
