The buzzer is your friend! Ryan 'Fritz' Holznagel, winner of the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions, shows you the secrets of quiz buzzing and how to improve your reaction time for winning speed.

Fritz has appeared in more than a dozen episodes of Jeopardy!, from his first appearance in 1994 through his big win in the 1995 Tournament of Champions through the Jeopardy Olympic tournament, the Ultimate Tournament of Champions and the 2014 Battle of the Decades. Over the years he has made a study of reaction times and buzzer speed: everything from which finger is fastest, to the effects of coffee, to the scientific literature on direct vs. peripheral vision. (Spoiler: direct vision leads to faster reaction times.)

In this book he offers a complete approach to getting faster on the buzzer for any kind of quiz competition: how to practice, how to think about holding the buzzer, and how to decide what works best for you. His Six Big Secrets for buzzer speed can help anyone get ready to perform at their best.

Fritz also offers a veteran's insight into the Jeopardy! buzzer process in particular -- how the signaling device works, when you get "locked out," and what to expect when you're on the show. He weighs in on the classic issue of watching the light vs. going by "feel," and shows how to have fun and be at your fastest on the day you appear.

This is a helpful book for anyone who wants to buzz faster: on Jeopardy!, in College Bowl or Quiz Bowl games, or in any TV game show or trivia competition.
