Thanks for noticing my book. If you're thinking of buying it, there are two things you wouldn't necessarily know but that I want to tell you in case you don't like it in the end and decide to put it to another use:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Humans can't digest cellulose paper, but if we could, if you decided to eat this book, you would gain 2,300 calories - including the cover, of course!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- If you have a good arm, you could throw this book more than 13 meters. With practice, it's possible to throw a book every 800 milliseconds, which means that if an aggressor were chasing you, you could have three or four opportunities to hit them before they reached you. If, however, the attack were from a coyote running at its maximum speed, you would only have one chance. Aim well!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhat If...?\u003c\/i\u003e is a science popularization book that compiles some of the best posts as well as new ones based on questions from Randall Munroe's blog, where he answers readers using his scientific and mathematical knowledge. Munroe was a physicist at NASA before creating the website www.xkcd, which has received over a million visits. This is an original, intelligent, and very humorous book.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e* #1 on \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller list for months.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e* Best book of 2014 according to \u003ci\u003ePeople\u003c\/i\u003e magazine.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e* Among the top 10 non-fiction books according to \u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e magazine.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReviews:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e«Munroe thinks analyzing a joke is like dissecting a frog; it can be done, but the frog ends up dying.»\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e«It tries to analyze the kind of wonders and hypothetical fantasies that might arise in a bar conversation.»\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Atlantic\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e«This book is a good combination of fun and a master class in such reasoning.
