Available from:About this title:
- Length: 321 pages
- From the creator of the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, hilarious and informative answers to important questions you probably never thought to ask Millions of people 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?
- Are fire tornadoes possible?
- His responses are masterpieces of clarity and wit, gleefully and accurately explaining everything from the relativistic effects of a baseball pitched at near the speed of light to the many horrible ways you could die while building a periodic table out of all the actual elements.
- Amazon Prime members can redeem their earned 'No Rush Shipping' credits on this purchase (check your balance).

With its fun illustrations I would still recommend the hardcover if ever the opportunity, but this is only $3

Came out to:
just under $11 for "what if" and
just under $15 for "what it 2"
Worth a shot if you are in the market! Hopefully it's good as a hardcover like the above posters mention
