Kurzbeschreibung
TUNE IN. TURN ON. GEEK OUT.
Sorry, beautiful people. These days, from government to business to technology to Hollywood, geeks rule the world.
Finally, here’s the book no self-respecting geek can live without–a guide jam-packed with 314.1516 short entries both useful and fun. Science, pop-culture trivia, paper airplanes, and pure geekish nostalgia coexist as happily in these pages as they do in their natural habitat of the geek brain.
In short, dear geek, here you’ll find everything you need to achieve nirvana. And here, for you pathetic nongeeks, is the last chance to save yourselves: Love this book, live this book, and you too can join us in the experience of total world domination.

Format:Taschenbuch
Das Buch wartet mit durchaus interessanten Fakten auf, sammelt allerdings leider nur kurze Schnipsel und ist teilweise recht langweilig geschrieben. Schade, da wäre mehr drin gewesen.

A Must-Have for Every Geek
13. März 2009
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Garth Sundem has done it again--he's written a witty, intelligent, and fun book that will get readers thinking. Here are just a handful of some of the delightful finds you'll get to peruse in this new book: Five Thought Experiments You Can Do Without Getting Out of Bed, World Leaders Who Also Happen to Be Hot, Spam Haiku, Futurama Quotes, and How to Ask Where the Bathroom is in Twelve Different Languages. There is a lot of variety in this book, which is great for geeks who get bored easily. There are also a ton of puzzles in this book, so for all of you logic puzzle fans--this book is for you. There is definitely something in it for every kind of geek, male or female, age 18 to grandparent. Sundem clearly has a gift for making people laugh while also plugging in real facts (that won't put you to sleep!). If Stephen Colbert, Alton Brown, Bill Nye, Matt Groening, and Steven Levitt all wrote one book together, this is what you'd get.

LOL you'll have a great time reading this book
28. März 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
Well this confirms it... I am officially a geek. There are so many fun and weird things strung throughout this book, you find yourself addicted to finding out what is on the next page. Just don't put it by the toilet or you will never leave the bathroom.

The Geek Couldn't Put It Down!
2. Mai 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
Purchased this as part of a college graduation present for my son's friend. Both are chest pounding proud geeks! My son couldn't put it down (neither could his wife). I think it's going to be a big hit and I'm betting that once the graduate is done reading it, my son will borrow the book and read it too.
