For his first book, The
Know-It-All, A. J. Jacobs read the entire Encyclopædia
Britannica from cover to cover in a quest to learn everything in the
world. In The
Year of Living Biblically, he followed every single rule of the
Bible -- from the Ten Commandments right on down to stoning adulterers.
Now comes a collection of his most hilarious and thought-provoking
experiments yet. In his role as human guinea pig, Jacobs fearlessly
takes on a series of life-altering challenges that provides readers
with equal parts insight and humor. (And which drives A.J.'s patient
wife, Julie, to the brink of insanity.). |
