内容简介

From the creator of the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, surprising answers to important questions you probably never thought to ask

Millions of people around the world 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?
What would happen if someone’s DNA vanished?

His responses are comic gems, accurately and entertainingly explaining everything from your odds of meeting your soul mate to the many horrible ways you could die while building a periodic table out of all the actual elements.

This book features the most popular answers from the xkcd’s What If blog, but many of the questions (51 percent!) are new and answered here for the first time. What If? is an informative feast for xkcd fans and anyone who loves to ponder the hypothetical.

　　《那些古怪又让人忧心的问题what if？》是前NASA员工、超热门科普漫画“xkcd”作家兰德尔·门罗的新作，内容来自他的“What If”科学问答专栏，辅以“xkcd”经典火柴人漫画，轻松幽默地将各学科知识跃然纸上。
　　如果人体内的DNA瞬间消失了会怎样？如果把海水抽干会怎样？如果地球膨胀得像太阳一样大会怎样？牛排从多高的地方掉下来正好烤熟？全人类搬离地球需要几步？这不是中规中矩的《十万个为什么》，而是脑洞大开的科学真相，小时候萌生的异想天开，都可以在这本书里找到最机智幽默的科学答案！

精彩书评

Praise for Randall Munroe and xkcd:
"By speaking the language of geeks. . . while dealing with relationships and the meaning of a computer-centric life, xkcd has become required reading for techies across the world….The Internet has also created a bond between Mr. Munroe and his readers that is exceptional. They reenact in real life the odd ideas he puts forward in his strip."
—The New York Times

"With his steady regimen of math jokes, physics jokes, and antisocial optimism, xkcd creator Randall Munroe, a former NASA roboticist, scores traffic numbers in NBC.com or Oprah.com territory. One key to the strip’s success may be that it doesn’t just comment on nerd culture, it embodies nerd culture."
—Wired, in an issue featuring "the people who have shaped the planet’s past 20 years"

"Sometimes the beloved geek-chic webcomic xkcd is funny in a broadly accessible way. Sometimes it’s achingly poignant, sometimes it’s socially intelligent, and sometimes it’s esoteric humor that programmers or scientists have to explain to the rest of us. But at its most ambitious, it either packs massive amounts of interesting information into a small space, or engages in breathtaking experiments with the medium….[A]t its best [xkcd] isn’t a strip comic so much as an idea factory and a shared experience."
—Onion AV Club

俗话说文无定法，写书评当然也无一定的格式，可以因人而异，因书而异。比如偏于谈感受的书评就可以直接从述感开头：“何建明的长篇报告文学《中国高考报告》是一部具有强烈震撼力的作品。不读则罢，越读越使人感到，高考的分量实在太重太重，它重得使许多中国人的腰背都压弯，连中华民族的脊梁也被压得出现了严重的畸型。高考啊！何时才能走出怪圈？”（《走出高考的怪圈》）想要带点文学色彩又要给读者一点悬念的也可以抒情开头：“若你走进普鲁斯特的世界，我想你不会不惊叹于那美妙的符号所产生的神奇魅力，不会不沉醉于玛德莱娜小点心的绵长回味，不会不震悸于人类内心的隐秘世界的强烈曝光。作为《追忆似水年华》的译者之一，我也不可能不更真切地感受到普鲁斯特开启的感觉世界对我的灵魂与感官的诱惑、冲击、洗涤、丰富、与净化。“（《全新而永恒的感觉世界》）当然书评的结尾也不一定都要推荐式的。可以表达某种愿望，如“愿借苇岸的亲切诚实的语言，生动盎然的诗意和宁静柔韧的美感铺就的小径，引领我们走向诗意栖居之地。”
