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-as a musician, as a friend, and as a wife. She learns that she isn't alone in this, that so many people are afraid to ask for help, and it paralyzes their lives and relationships. In this groundbreaking book, she explores these barriers in her own life and in the lives of those around her, and discovers the emotional, philosophical, and practical aspects of The Art of Asking.
Part manifesto, part revelation, this is the story of an artist struggling with the new rules of exchange in the twenty-first century, both on and off the Internet. The Art of Asking will inspire readers to rethink their own ideas about asking, giving, art, and love.

Críticas
"A book unlike any other I've ever read. . . a book I'd have no problem recommending to everyone I know. My mother, my best friend, my work friends, my Facebook friends, my LinkedIn contacts, even the people I meet on the street or see on the subway when I commute to and from work. It's that important and that groundbreaking. This book is not just someone's brave and personal journey from childhood to her life as an artist, but it also addresses why and how it's so hard to look into someone else's eyes and be real, and ask for help when we need it. . . . Palmer has, not to put too fine a point on it, ripped open her chest and exposed her heart for all to see. She's written her truth - and it's at once brutal and gloriously, importantly beautiful."--The Huffington Post
"A story about a life in one dollar bills, from statue to icon, where media doesn't matter, crowds do. Mandatory reading in the digital age, for aspiring artists and their doubtful parents."
--Nicholas Negroponte, founder, MIT Media Lab
"Amanda has a direct line with her audience-a lifeline for them and for her, the codependency all truly great performers surrender to . . . She's capable of anything, incapable of telling anything but the truth."
--Bono
"Amanda Palmer joyfully shows a generation how to change their lives."--Caitlin Moran, author of How to Be a Woman and How to Build a Girl
"Amanda Palmer's generous work of genius will change the way you think about connection, love, and grace."
--Seth Godin, author of Tribes
"From this beautiful, heart-wrenching story of art comes an incredible account of the nature and future of commerce."
--Lawrence Lessig, author of Free Culture
"Much as Anne Lamott offered 'instructions on writing and life' in Bird by Bird, Amanda Palmer will be instructive to anyone who struggles with fear of the 'no.'"--Shelf Awareness
"This is the kind of book that makes you want to call the author up at midnight to whisper, 'My God. I thought I was the only one.'"--Jenny Lawson, the Bloggess and author of Let's Pretend This Never Happened
"To read Amanda Palmer's remarkable memoir about asking and giving is to tumble headlong into her world. At first, you find yourself thinking, 'Goodness, what a crazy world that Amanda Palmer inhabits! How does she possibly endure it?' Then, gradually, as you read along, a doorway opens up in your heart, and you realize, 'I want to live in a world exactly like hers.' God willing, this book will show us all how to do it."--Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love and The Signature of All Things

All my life, I've been taught not to trust strangers, for good reason, and I've followed that advice thoroughly. But now I'm getting suspicious of all that I've been taught, and this book plays a massive role in it. It's not just a book of asking, it's about trusting, loving, creating, receiving, and a whole multitude of -ings.
The book is full of uniquely thoughtful ideas that made me think and reflect and change- For example, "People were calling me "shameless," but I decided to take it as an unintended compliment. Wasn't shame...bad? Like Fear? I mean, nobody uses "fearless" as an insult."
The stories in the book are very humanising and comforting at the same time emotionally transforming. I believe when the book changes the way you look at the world, it is a great book.
Now the writing part - I'm not a fan of the structure of the book or the narrative. But it is all too well human. I read the book for the content, not the writing style. And I believe it was worth every penny. I do not know of a single person around me, who is as good at asking as Amanda Palmer. Not even close. And I'm going to keep this book and go back to it again and again until I learn how to ask without shame or guilt or any other morbid emotions that always accompany the process of asking.
I bought the paperback edition and the print and paper quality is nice.
It's about being human, and about art and self-worth and trust. It's about how to be able to ask for help, and how to give help, and about being part of something bigger with other human beings.
