Timothy Ferris might be a little strange

How do you follow up a bestselling audiobook about how to achieve better work/life balance?  Apparently by writing a really, really strange diet book.  Whether or not you're a fan of Timothy Ferriss, it is well worth checking out the New York Times review of his new audiobook, The 4-Hour Body.  Here's a sample:

"Everything about Mr. Ferriss’s book declares: This is not your auntie’s self-help book. No muffled 'I’m OK — You’re OK' tone here. The vibe is: I’m Superbad, bro, and I have dimples. You’re a mole person who, if you become an angel investor in my books, might someday touch the hem of my Speedo." 

Do note that this review is not for the faint of heart--it goes into detail about some of the more unusual of Ferriss's suggestions.
