Reviews
"Jacobs' experiments are about understanding oneself, making life more interesting and showing the reader a good time. And I love them for it." - San Francisco Chronicle, "[T]he most enlightening moments are driven by his honesty, his sense of humor, and his willingness to constantly challenge his ingrained assumptions.... Hilarity, and quite a bit of learning, ensue.... In [ My Life as an Experiment] , he once again achieves a rare literary balancean intellectual study of human behavior that will make readers laugh out loud or, in the more daring cases, inspire them to try one of these experiments for themselves." - Providence Journal, "Jacobs, the author of The Know-It-All (2004) and The Year of Living Biblically (2007), could be the funniest nonfiction writer this side of Bill Bryson.... The experiments themselves are fascinating and lead to genuinely surprising conclusions...and Jacobs's storytelling is lighthearted and frequently laugh-out-loud funny.... There aren't a lot of nonfiction books you want to read over and over, but this is certainly one of them."- Booklist (starred review), "Over the years, [Jacobs' experiments] have grown more complex and deeper in potential meaning. Not to mention funnier and funnier." - The Kansas City Star, "Jacobs' experiments are about understanding oneself, making life more interesting and showing the reader a good time. And I love them for it."—San Francisco Chronicle, "Jacobs, the author ofThe Know-It-All(2004) andThe Year of Living Biblically(2007), could be the funniest nonfiction writer this side of Bill Bryson....

Jacobs." --Entertainment Weekly, "Jacobs's third book . . . establishes his success as a humorist beyond doubt, and perhaps without peer."- Chicago Sun-Times, "Jacobs's third book, The Guinea Pig Diaries, establishes his success as a humorist beyond doubt, and perhaps without peer." --Chicago Sun-Times, "Whether he's posing as a celebrity, outsourcing his chores, or adhering strictly to the Bible, we love reading about the wacky lifestyle experiments of author A.J. Jacobs."- Entertainment Weekly, "He's not just in it for the yuksthough there are plenty of yuks. (He's very funny.) He has a curious, questioning mind and is always looking for larger meaning.... [ My Live as an Experiment ] is intelligent, insightful shtick." - Minneapolis Star-Tribune, "Jacobs's third book . . . establishes his success as a humorist beyond doubt, and perhaps without peer." --Chicago Sun-Times

Synopsis
The uproarious New York Times bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically and The Know-It-All gathers his adventures as a human guinea pig into one of the funniest and most enlightening books of the year. - An irresistible page-turner filled with surprising wisdom: For his first hit book, Jacobs read the Encyclopedia Britannica. For his second, he followed every single rule in the Bible. Now comes a collection of his most outrageous and thought-provoking experiments yet. In The Guinea Pig Diaries, Jacobs goes undercover as a beautiful woman. He outsources everything in his life to India, from answering his emails to arguing with his wife. He spends two months saying whatever is on his mind. He lives like George Washington. Plus several other life-changing experiments--one of which involves public nudity. - Amazing sales record: The humor of A.J. Jacobs has produced sales that are anything but laughable. His books have more than half a million copies in print, and they have spent a combined twenty-nine weeks on the New York Times bestseller lists and counting. He has inspired many imitators, but none has matched his ability to combine side-splitting entertainment with profound life lessons. - A media favorite: To promote his books, Jacobs has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, the Today show, Good Morning America, Anderson Cooper 360, Conan O'Brien, and NPr's Fresh Air. Jacobs is all over the Internet as well, from Slate to the Huffington Post to Playboy.com. He is a regular contributor to NPR's Weekend Edition. And he's the editor-at-large at Esquire magazine, where versions of some of these experiments have appeared., The uproarious New York Times bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically and The Know-It-All gathers his adventures as a human guinea pig into one of the funniest and most enlightening books of the year. * An irresistible page-turner filled with surprising wisdom: For his first hit book, Jacobs read the Encyclopedia Britannica.
