Randall Munroe is the author of the popular webcomic xkcd and the science question-and-answer blog What If. Randall was born in Easton, Pennsylvania and grew up outside Richmond, Virginia. After studying physics at Christopher Newport University, he got a job building robots at NASA Langley Research Center. In 2006, he left NASA to draw comics on the internet full-time, supporting himself through the sale of xkcd t-shirts, prints, posters, and books. He likes candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach. Very long walks. Lots of people say they like long walks on the beach, but then they get out on the beach and after just an hour or two, they say they're getting tired. Bring a tent. He lives in Massachusetts.

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 a large and passionate following.

Fans of xkcd ask Munroe a lot of strange questions. What if you tried to hit a baseball pitched at 90 percent the speed of light? How fast can you hit a speed bump while driving and live? If there was a robot apocalypse, how long would humanity last?

In pursuit of answers, Munroe runs computer simulations, pores over stacks of declassified military research memos, solves differential equations, and consults with nuclear reactor operators. His responses are masterpieces of clarity and hilarity, complemented by signature xkcd comics. They often predict the complete annihilation of humankind, or at least a really big explosion.

The book features new and never-before-answered questions, along with updated and expanded versions of the most popular answers from the xkcd website. What If? will be required reading for xkcd fans and anyone who loves to ponder the hypothetical.

谁小的时候没有过荒唐的想法？我就曾经有过很多。比如能不能拿着伞当降落伞啊。但直到深长大到高中，却都不曾摸过真正的伞。因为我们那里是北方，干旱，雨水少，风大，伞基本上没鸟用，大家都穿雨衣，所以我也就没有了亲自实践的机会。但在铁轨上尿尿会不会被电着小鸡鸡...

如果要用一个词来定义这本书，我会认为是“好奇心”。不知道从什么时候开始，好奇的都是诸如办公室八卦、朋友间的绯闻动态，或者是一些明星、行业领袖的新闻。而一些更“幼稚”的问题，比如天空有多高、有人在星星上生活吗，已经甚少提及，到底是什么时候我们学会了不再提问...

小的时候，曾经问我妈：“如果我们住在零下一百度的地方会怎么样？如果我把自己锁在一栋有一万把锁的房子里面会怎么样呢，别人要用多久找到我？我们真的是猿猴进化来的吗，猿猴又是从哪里来的，为什么我不是女娲造出来的啊……” 当时，我妈敲了敲我的头，说：“净想些乱...
