Firsthand

It’s time for a nonfiction feast. Firsthand takes readers into the lives and minds of genteel doomsayers, autistic activists, currency rebels, and audacious climate engineers. Follow spelling reformers, misunderstood criminals, Egyptian revolutionaries, pro-GMO environmentalists, and, of course, the Illinois man whose left hand was sewn onto his right wrist. This collection of David Wolman’s writing contains fifteen stories from Wired, Nature, The Atavist, the author’s books and more. Go ahead: dig in.
