Per un anno intero, A.J. Jacobs ha cercato di seguire ogni tipo di consiglio per proteggere la sua salute -- dallo spalmarsi continuamente con bicchierini di lozione solare all'indossare un casco da ciclista mentre faceva la spesa. Sul palco di TEDMED, ci racconta le cose soprendenti che ha imparato.

Immersing himself in alternate lifestyles and long, hilarious experiments (usually with himself the guinea pig), writer A.J. Jacobs tests the limits of behavior, customs, culture, knowledge -- and his wife's sense of humor. Full bio »
