RANDALL MUNROE
Sinopsis de WHAT IF: SERIOUS SCIENTIFIC ANSWERS TO ABSURD HYPOTHETICAL QUESTIONS
Munroe's hilarious and compelling answers explain everything from the odds of meeting your one true soulmate to how many humans a rampaging T-Rex would need to eat a day. From the creator of the wildly popular xkcd.com, hilarious and informative answers to important questions you probably never thought to ask. Millions visit xkcd.com each week to read Randall Munroe's iconic webcomic. Fans ask him a lot of strange questions: How fast can you hit a speed bump, driving, and live? When (if ever) did the sun go down on the British Empire? When will Facebook contain more profiles of dead people than living? How many humans would a T Rex rampaging through New York need to eat a day? In pursuit of answers, Munroe runs computer simulations, pores over stacks of declassified military research memos, solves differential equations and consults nuclear reactor operators. His responses are masterpieces of clarity and hilarity, complemented by comics. They often predict the complete annihilation of humankind, or at least a really big explosion.
1 reseñas sobre el libro WHAT IF: SERIOUS SCIENTIFIC ANSWERS TO ABSURD HYPOTHETICAL QUESTIONS
Espectacular libro(esta tambien en castellano) que intenta contestar preguntas imaginativas de la gente a traves de la ciencia. Que cantidad de poder tiene Yoda, que pasaria si cayeran todos los rayos de una tormenta a la vez en el mismo sitio, que psaria si drenaramos todo el agua del oceano y lo pusieramos en marte,,,, incluso alguna cuestion mas actual com que pasaria si un virus de resfriado nos llevara a una cuarentena mundia.... la ficcion y la real mas cerca que nunca.
