Críticas:
"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
"We love reading about the lifestyle experiments of author A.J. Jacobs."--Entertainment Weekly
"Over the years, [Jacobs' experiments] have grown more complex and deeper in potential meaning. Not to mention funnier and funnier."--The Kansas City Star
"He's not just in it for the yuks-though 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
"Immersive journalism' is a popular trope these days and Esquire editor A. J. Jacobs is one of its most entertaining adherents, performing a public service with his quest for knowledge in his latest book, [My Life as an Experiment].... His experiments, alternately Herculean and banal, are emblematic of how difficult it is in this modern age to find enlightenment; 'know thyself' regularly brushes up against the cold, rocky bottom of daily life."--LA Weekly
"Both laugh-out-loud funny and enlightening." --People
"Inspired and inspiring."--Vanity Fair
"Off-the-wall and uproarious."--Publishers Weekly
"The virtuoso of this self-as-guinea pig genre."--Brad Tuttle, Time
"Both laugh-out-loud funny and enlightening."--People

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.
