Randall Munroe [is] the guru of absurd science questions . . .What If ?2 is stuffed with questions that are fanciful in the asking, but perfectly - and playfully - informative in the answering.

No. Are you happy - indeed, delighted - to have it? Almost certainly yes. Science isn't easy, but in Munroe's capablehands, it surely can be fun. -- Jeffrey Kluger * Time Magazine *
One of my favourite books of the year. -- Tim Harford * Financial Times *
Head-scratching . . . seemingly simple conundrums lead to the most fascinating of rabbit holes. * WIRED *
