Don Tillman， professor of genetics， has never been on a second date. He is a man who can count all his friends on the fingers of one hand， whose lifelong difficulty with social rituals has convinced him that he is simply not wired for romance. So when an acquaintance informs him that he would make a “wonderful” husband， his first reaction is shock. Yet he must concede to the statistical probability that there is someone for everyone， and he embarks upon the Wife Project. In the orderly， evidence-based manner with which he approaches all things， Don sets out to find the perfect partner. She will be punctual and logical -- most definitely not a barmaid， a smoker， a drinker， or a late-arriver.

Yet Rosie Jarman is all these things. She is also beguiling， fiery， intelligent -- and on a quest of her own. She is looking for her biological father， a search that a certain DNA expert might be able to help her with. Don's Wife Project takes a back burner to the Father Project and an unlikely relationship blooms， forcing the scientifically minded geneticist to confront the spontaneous whirlwind that is Rosie -- and the realization that love is not always what looks good on paper.

The Rosie Project is a moving and hilarious novel for anyone who has ever tenaciously gone after life or love in the face of overwhelming challenges.

遗传学教授唐·蒂尔曼本着以证据为基础，井井有条的作风，出发去找寻他的最佳伴侣。完全满足唐要求的罗茜·贾曼也在找寻她的另一半。一种看似不可能的关系在两人之间生根发芽，使他们意识到爱情不仅仅只在文字上看着那么美好。罗茜计划是一部感人且幽默的小说，适合那些虽然面对巨大挑战，但仍坚定地追求生活与爱情的所有人。
