A smart, hilarious parody of Malcolm Gladwell's bestselling Blink.
Stop! Don't think! You already know what this book is about.
That is the power of Blank: the power of not actually thinking at
all. Using what scientific researchers call 'Extra-Lean Deli
Slicing' (or would, if they actually bothered to research it), your
brain has already decided whether you're going to like Blank,
whether its cover goes with your shirt, and whether it will make
you look smart if somebody sees you reading it on the train.
Chances are you and your shirt are both liking it a lot, you're
going to buy several copies, and you don't even know why! That's
why you've absolutely got to read Blank: to find out why your brain
keeps doing these wacky things without your permission. In Blank, a
hilarious parody of the No. 1 bestseller it looks eerily like (and
sort of rhymes with) and that your brain wisely advised you to just
read a review or magazine excerpt about while avoiding the actual
book itself, the brilliantly impulsive and slightly irresponsible
Noah Tall explains how people as diverse as General Custer, Roy
Rogers, a semi-famous rock star, and the entire New York City
Police Department either won big or lost miserably as a result of
their minds going completely blank.
