The Art of Asking

by Amanda Palmer

"Rock star, crowdfunding pioneer, and TED speaker Amanda Palmer knows all about asking ... Even while Amanda is both celebrated and attacked for her fearlessness in asking for help, she finds that there are important things she cannot ask for ... Part manifesto, part revelation, this is the story of an artist struggling with the new rules of exchange in the twenty-first century"--Book jacket flap.
