Title: Brain
Description: All Daniel Waterstone ever watned to do was write the great American novel and change the landscape of modern literature. He has two books in print, but no one's buying. His agent won't accept his latest masterpiece, which he pored his soul into; apparently, it's not commercial enough. In an act of desperation, under the pseudonym Charles Spectrum, he pens a feverish satire of a chart-topping self-help best-seller. "How to do Amazing Things Using Only Your Brain," contains crazy and hilarious exercises on how to increase one's brain power. Instead of being published as satire, it hits the shelves with all the other serious pop psychology, self-help book. It's a huge hit and people around the world do the unbelievably zany exercises. Crazier still: they get results. Readers levitate, bend spoons and see into the future.--p.4 of cover.
