The Know-It-All One Man's Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World

To say that I identified with the author is a huge understatement (and that's HUGE w/ a silent h). A good read both for those of us who love to continuously learn, and for those who just don't understand us.

All of his books are great.

I loved this book on both levels--the funny, odd facts that A J Jacobs picks out, and the meaning he draws from his experiences. The book was almost always entertaining, interesting, and enjoyable and even poignant at times. Like the encyclopedia itself, I suppose, without the boring parts.
