Alpha Nurd

One Person Can Make a Difference!

Dr. Seuss coined the word nerd in the 1950s to describe a fictional zoo creature, not a human. Alpha Nurd is about people, clarifying its roots in the '60s, starting with the different spelling. This book will reveal a distinct picture of where the word came from and how one person can indeed make a difference in this world.

Come along on the journey and discover multiple examples of nurds in antiquity to present day, some whom I have personally met, including Steve Jobs, founder of Apple, and Alan B. Shephard, the first American in space. People young and old alike need to realize their lives are important, and by pursuing their goals/dreams, they can make a difference.

How important are the nurds? Much more crucial to the world than you may think! Read Alpha Nurd today and discover their significance. By doing so, YOU MAY FIND THE NURD IN YOU!
