American Nerd: The Story of My People


"The coolest book about nerds ever written. Heck, one of the coolest books ever written, period. Benjamin Nugent is the Richard Dawkins of geekdom. Outsiders of the world, this is required reading. Know your roots!"

- Paul Feig, creator of Freaks and Geeks


"AMERICAN NERD is very funny and consistently smart, but it's also mildly controversial-I'm not sure I've ever seen these kinds of cogent, intuitively accurate arguments made about any 'type' of modern person. Benjamin Nugent is just weird enough to be absolutely right."

-Chuck Klosterman, author of Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs
