From the creator of the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, hilarious and
informative answers to important questions you probably never
thought to ask Millions of people visit xkcd.com each week to read
Randall Munroe's iconic webcomic. His stick-figure drawings about
science, technology, language, and love have an enormous, dedicated
following, as do his deeply researched answers to his fans'
strangest questions. The queries he receives range from merely odd
to downright diabolical: - What if I took a swim in a
spent-nuclear-fuel pool? - Could you build a jetpack using
downward-firing machine guns? - What if a Richter 15 earthquake hit
New York City? - Are fire tornadoes possible? His responses are
masterpieces of clarity and wit, gleefully and accurately
explaining everything from the relativistic effects of a baseball
pitched at near the speed of light to the many horrible ways you
could die while building a periodic table out of all the actual
elements. The book features new and never-before-answered
questions, along with the most popular answers from the xkcd
website. "What If? "is an informative feast for xkcd fans and
anyone who loves to ponder the hypothetical.
