Book Description A unique, hilarious take on the modern world
Jessica Hagy is a different kind of thinker. She has an astonishing talent for visualizing relationships, capturing in pictures what is difficult for most of us to express in words.
At indexed.blogspot.com, she posts charts, graphs, and Venn diagrams drawn on index cards that reveal in a simple and intuitive way the large and small truths of modern life.
Praised throughout the blogosphere as "brilliant," "incredibly creative," and "comic genius," Jessica turns her incisive, deadpan sense of humor on everything from office politics to relationships to religion.
With new material along with some of Jessica's greatest hits, this utterly unique book will thrill readers who demand humor that makes them both laugh and think. An Exclusive Indexed Card from Jessica Hagy

This is a great little idea -- key word little. It does not stretch to fill a whole book. Moderately entertaining, a few thought-provoking ideas. In my opinion, not worth this many pages.

Fabulous little book - funny, topical, wickedly subversive in spots. Wish I was this clever!

I help companies sell more. Specifically, I help companies sell technical products. In this effort I speak to groups all over the country. I find that good visuals make a good presentation. I purchased "Indexed" to open my mind to better visuals.
This book can be used one of two ways. First, it is a funny and quick "read" (and I use this term loosely because there are very few words - it is visual). Secondly, this book can be reviewed often to stimulate visual representations for your own ideas....
It's not for everybody, but it works for me.

Jessica has certainly tapped into something unique here - her insights are smart, thought-provoking, and most importantly: really funny.
