Beyond Measure is a fascinating exploration of the rituals,
routines, metrics and expectations through which we attempt to
quantify and ascribe value to our lives. With mordant humor and
penetrating intellect, Arndt casts her gaze beyond event-driven
narratives to the machinery underlying them: judo competitions
measured in weigh-ins and wait times; the significance of the
elliptical's stationary churn; the rote scripts of dating apps; the
stupefying sameness of the daily commute. Rachel Z. Arndt's writing
has appeared in Popular Mechanics, Quartz, The Believer, and
elsewhere. She received MFAs in nonfiction and poetry from the
University of Iowa, where she was an Iowa Arts Fellow and
nonfiction editor of The Iowa Review. After stints in Rhode Island
and New York, she now lives in Chicago and works as a reporter at
Modern Healthcare, covering healthcare technology.
