Description:Essays on intellect, passion, alienation, and America's geeky subcultures.What happens when math nerds, band and theater geeks, goths, sci-fi fanatics, Young Republican debate poindexters, techies, Trekkies, D&D players, wallflowers, bookworms, and RPG players grow up? And what can they tell us about the life of the mind in the contemporary United States?With recent years bringing us phenomena from #GamerGate to The Big Bang Theory, it's clear that nerds, policy wonks, and neoconservatives play a major role in today's popular culture.
