What If?: Serious Scientific Answers to Absurd Hypothetical Questions by Randall Munroe
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wil Wheaton does a great job as narrator here on the zany and imaginative questions gathered by Munroe - some of which are so outlandish as to get mocked and not answered. Munroe has fun discussing the mathematics (most answers have a math angle) on obalting the mood with bright lights to baseballs moving near the speed of light. Much of this is in the nerdy and edgy spirit of "Fermi Questions" that I enjoy.
