Randall Munroe left NASA in 2005 to start up his hugely popular site XKCD 'a web comic of romance, sarcasm, math and language' which offers a witty take on the world of science and geeks. It now has 600,000 to a million page hits daily. Every now and then, Munroe would get emails asking him to arbitrate a science debate. 'My friend and I were arguing about what would happen if a bullet got struck by lightning, and we agreed that you should resolve it . . . ' He liked these questions so much that he started up What If.
I've now read the audio book (Wil Wheaton narrator), the ebook and the website. The website is more complete, the ebook is okay, and Wil Wheaton is really entertaining. +1 star for being Randall Munroe (and especially the last What If) brings this book to a net total of 5 stars.
