One man. Ten extraordinary quests. Bestselling author and
human guinea pig A. J. Jacobs puts his life to the test and
reports on the surprising and entertaining results. He goes
undercover as a woman, lives by George Washington’s moral
code, and impersonates a movie star. He practices "radical
honesty," brushes his teeth with the world’s most rational
toothpaste, and outsources every part of his life to
India—including reading bedtime stories to his kids.
And in a new adventure, Jacobs undergoes scientific
testing to determine how he can put his wife through these
and other life-altering experiments—one of which involves
public nudity. Filled with humor and wisdom, My
Life as an Experiment will immerse you in eye-opening
situations and change the way you think about the big issues
of our time—from love and work to national politics and
breakfast cereal.
