"As a science writer who's written about the psychology of love and affection, I was struck by the clarity and honesty that illuminate this work. Finch provides a clear and unflinching look at the ways that this disorder leaves a person struggling to navigate through the complexities of our "neurotypical" social world. But he tells his story with humor, affection for others, and without self-pity. In his deep desire to be a good husband, a better father, a decent human being who connects with and care for others, Finch tells a universal tale, a fulfilling and even inspiring story of the difference that love - genuinely giving love - can make in our daily lives." --Deborah Blum, author of The Poisoner's Handbook, "David Finch has Asperger Syndrome a disorder that, in some ways, means 'acting like a guy.' His often-hilarious efforts to understand and cope with his condition will resonate with every guy whose wife has ever asked him, 'What the hell were you THINKING?'" --Dave Barry, author of I'll Mature When I'm Dead: Dave Barry's Amazing Tales of Adulthood, "In this funny, endearing, lesson-packed memoir, Finch shows what a couple can accomplish with acceptance, forbearance, determination and love." -- More Magazine, "In this funny, endearing, lesson-packed memoir, Finch shows what a couple can accomplish with acceptance, forbearance, determination and love." - More Magazine, "In relating his story, Finch is compellingly honest, a trait that works well with his self-deprecating humor. [His] ability to put his experiences on paper will no doubt help more people-and families-understand [Asperger's disorder]. " --Publishers Weekly, "As a science writer who's written about the psychology of love and affection, I was struck by the clarity and honesty that illuminate this work.

He's great company." --The New York Times, "A remarkable love story and a fascinating account of how two people saved a marriage." --Columbus Dispatch, "I loved The Journal of Best Practices by fellow Aspergian David Finch. This book perfectly captures the essence of succeeding at married life from the perspective of an Aspergian male. If you're in an AS-NT relationship-or any relationship--you absolutely must read this book! It's an upbeat and refreshing change." John Elder Robison, author of Look Me In the Eye, "Hilarious. Gives some of the finest explications of Asperger's out there… a primer of sorts for all of us on how to be better partners." --People Magazine, 4-star review, "In relating his story, Finch is compellingly honest, a trait that works well with his self-deprecating humor. [His] ability to put his experiences on paper will no doubt help more people--and families--understand [Asperger's disorder]. " --Publishers Weekly, "Extremely amusing and compelling…This poignant memoir is a great read for those with Asperger Syndrome and the neurotypical alike." --Shelf Awareness, "As a science writer who's written about the psychology of love and affection, I was struck by the clarity and honesty that illuminate this work.

Synopsis
The warm and hilarious bestselling memoir by a man diagnosed with Asperger syndrome who sets out to save his marriage. At some point in nearly every marriage, a wife finds herself asking, What the @# % is wrong with my husband? In David Finch's case, this turns out to be an apt question. Five years after he married Kristen, the love of his life, they learn that he has Asperger syndrome. The diagnosis explains David's ever-growing list of quirks and compulsions, but it doesn't make him any easier to live with. Determined to change, David sets out to understand Asperger syndrome and learn to be a better husband with an endearing yet hilarious zeal. His methods for improving his marriage involve excessive note-taking, performance reviews, and most of all, the Journal of Best Practices: a collection of hundreds of maxims and hard-won epiphanies, including "Don't change the radio station when she's singing along" and "Apologies do not count when you shout them." Over the course of two years, David transforms himself from the world's most trying husband to the husband who tries the hardest. He becomes the husband he'd always meant to be. Filled with humor and surprising wisdom, The Journal of Best Practices is a candid story of ruthless self-improvement, a unique window into living with an autism spectrum condition, and proof that a true heart can conquer all., *A New York Times Bestseller* A warm and hilarious memoir by a man diagnosed with Asperger syndrome who sets out to save his relationship.Five years after David Finch married Kristen, the love of his life, they learned that he has Asperger syndrome.
