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 drives his patient wife, Julie, to the brink of insanity.) Among the many adventures: He outsources his life to a team of people in Bangalore, India. He spends a month practicing Radical Honesty, in which you say what's on your mind. He goes to the Academy Awards disguised as a movie star, to understand the strange and warping effects of fame. He commits himself to ultimate rationality, using cutting-edge science to make the best decisions possible. He attempts to follow George Washington's rules of life. And, for a month, he followed his wife's every whim.--From publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Nonfiction 814.6 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 814.6 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 814.6 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 814.6 Ja Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 814.6 Ja Checked out 06/20/2024 Add Copy to MyList
