Ever fancied the idea of bringing a submarine into orbit? Randall will not only fuel such ideas but will do so with such scientific rigor and wit that you'd wish people tried it MythBusters style (not me, because i'm ordered not to try any of this at home)
Munroe, creator of the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, has a knack for transforming the bizarre into the brilliant, making “What If?” much more than just a collection of humorous speculations. It's a deep dive into the hypothetical, backed by real science and boundless imagination.
This book has the same problem as the video shorts nowadays, constantly tempting you with the prospect of just a few more pages filled with bizarre hypotheses. What if.. there was a second book in this series on my bookshelf
