好多新东西,快去买
评分这证明要搞好科研需要十分强大的脑洞
评分由于时间的关系,我并没有从头到尾仔仔细细读一遍,而是着重看了有关诸如DNA等自己更感兴趣的内容,其它都只是扫了一遍,放过了很多细节。这本书的卖点在于其用物理化学生物地理等科学知识来回答各种假设情景中的问题。作者自身的科学功底在回答中可见其深厚,对于貌似无厘头的提问既保持严谨分析,又做到风趣易懂。开脑洞不可怕,可怕的是脑洞开的如此创意四射……
评分囫囵吞枣读完了。很喜欢。
评分I was like, dude.
Randall Munroe is the author of the popular webcomic xkcd and the science question-and-answer blog What If. Randall was born in Easton, Pennsylvania and grew up outside Richmond, Virginia. After studying physics at Christopher Newport University, he got a job building robots at NASA Langley Research Center. In 2006, he left NASA to draw comics on the internet full-time, supporting himself through the sale of xkcd t-shirts, prints, posters, and books. He likes candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach. Very long walks. Lots of people say they like long walks on the beach, but then they get out on the beach and after just an hour or two, they say they're getting tired. Bring a tent. He lives in Massachusetts.
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 a large and passionate following.
Fans of xkcd ask Munroe a lot of strange questions. What if you tried to hit a baseball pitched at 90 percent the speed of light? How fast can you hit a speed bump while driving and live? If there was a robot apocalypse, how long would humanity last?
In pursuit of answers, Munroe runs computer simulations, pores over stacks of declassified military research memos, solves differential equations, and consults with nuclear reactor operators. His responses are masterpieces of clarity and hilarity, complemented by signature xkcd comics. They often predict the complete annihilation of humankind, or at least a really big explosion.
The book features new and never-before-answered questions, along with updated and expanded versions of the most popular answers from the xkcd website. What If? will be required reading for xkcd fans and anyone who loves to ponder the hypothetical.
那些古怪又让人忧心的问题 一本很可爱的书 让一个纯正的文科生我看得烧脑不已 从来没想过这些看起来很滑稽的问题还真的能有逻辑地被回答出来,原来一个人要是想哭到脱水要哭5.6年,原来牛排从很高的天上掉下来会很有可能变成匹兹堡牛排,原来叠25万块积木之后最下面那块就会...
评分每天上班路上,有一条河堤路,路上只有两条车道双向的。经常有车来来往往,想要超车比较需要技术,一定是对面车道没有车或者车离着比较远的时候,迅速超越前车,加速,油门,转向,加速,加大油门,转向,请为一个开车娴熟的女司机鼓掌,谢谢。 这段路上总会经过一个阶段式的减...
评分一本脑洞大开的书,问题大多不是很现实,但却是突破思维定势的一种尝试,于个人想象、思维创新有一定促进作用。 大多问题,估计很多人甚至想都没想过。其实很多事情还是蛮有趣的呢。比如,"人以每秒1英尺的速度上升,是先冻死还是先窒息而死?将元素周期表中的元素都排列在一...

评分一些無厘頭的問題,用科學與幽默的方式來回答,坦白說,讀完會有些收穫,卻又不怎麼營養,也不見得完全正確。它令我想到另一本經濟類別書籍 ~【親愛的臥底經濟學家】,幽默居多,實用其次,正確與否,就別計較。重要的是,在莞爾一笑外,啟發些思索。
