			        		A Guardian Best Book of 2019An Inc. Magazine Best Business Book of 2018"I loved Dan Lyons's book Disrupted. With Lab Rats, he takes his critique of the modern workplace to the next level, to show how Silicon Valley's sometimes disturbing ideas about how to treat employees now pervade many workplaces. This is a fascinating, thought-provoking, hilarious, and sometimes harrowing account of current work culture."―Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project and The Four Tendencies"Dan Lyons's Lab Rats defies easy description. It is hilarious, but not funny. I sputtered laughing and choked crying (literally, not figuratively) as I read it. Yes, to an extreme, Lyons gives Silicon Valley the thrashing that it, alas, largely deserves. But in the final third of the book, he offers us an effectively illustrated way out--an approach to work and business that puts people first, profitably serves customers, and makes the world a little bit better in the process."―Tom Peters, New York Times bestselling author of In Search of Excellence"A lively and spirited takedown."―The Guardian"[Lyons] argues persuasively.... A passionate indictment of brutal workplace culture."―Kirkus Reviews"[A] darkly funny journalistic look at the contemporary workplace.... By turns sardonic and impassioned, this is an insightful and frequently entertaining guide to the increasingly bizarre world of Silicon Valley and the trends it spawns."―Publishers Weekly (starred review)"[Lab Rats] exposes the junk science and questionable management practices that have migrated from Silicon Valley to the rest of the economy."―Knowledge@Wharton"Fair warning: you may need an extra set of hands around while you're reading Lab Rats. You'll need them to help pick your jaw up off the floor."―Houston Style Magazine"With Lab Rats, Lyons makes a passionate plea for business leaders to understand this dangerous transformation and offers a way out."―BookPassage
