This was a great book, but the &quot;cyber-ish&quot; Chip Kidd cover was misleading. It&#x27;s not about computer geeks, but about carnival geeks, where the term originates.<p>For those who have never read it, it&#x27;s a fascinating story about a traveling carnival family whose parents decided to breed their own freaks. When pregnant, the mother ingests all sorts of poisons, pesticides, etc. to ensure that her children have deformities.
