Best buy two

This is the sort of book you cannot wait to share with friends. Alas, as I've learned several times over, it's also the sort of book friends are reluctant to return after you loan it to them. Besides being funny and clever and near impossible to put down, it's actually useful, in the same way that a Rubik's Cube is (used to be) useful: to transport you into the realm of problems that wink, "I have a solution! Find me!" I cannot recommend this book too highly.

Tired of the same-ol' self-help books?

All the self-help books are beginning to sound the same. NOT SO with Geek Logik. From a psychology perspective, I think following Garth Sundem's advice may be the best thing since Freud (sorry Garth). His approach is not only intuitively sound but mathematically sound (so he claims). It's a difficult book to put down except when you're laughing so hard you can no longer see the words. Merry Christmas to my whole Christmas list! Gail Noller

Unbelievably Good

Hilarious, creative, and disturbingly useful. A great read for pure entertainment value, though you will secretly consider actually using these equations to simplify difficult daily decisions.

This book is hilarious! You gotta get this!

"Geek Logik" is really a book for all ages. Why? Because it speaks to all the important questions we are all struggling to answer in life. I was on the floor laughing throughout the whole book. My personal favorite: "Do I have a snowball's chance in hell with her?" The equations and logics are masterfully concocted. This will be a great Christmas present. I already bought several copies for my friends and family - they are going to love it!!! One of the funniest books I have read in a long, long time. I highly recommend it.

Worth Every Penny!

This book is absolutely hillarious! A work of true genious. For all of us who need to quantify the Big Decisions in life, and have a bit of O.C.D. thrown in the mix. I can't wait for the sequal!
