How To
From the brilliant mind behind the wildly popular webcomic xkcd, How To is “the world's most entertaining and useless self-help guide.” Randall Munroe takes everyday tasks and reimagines them with absurd-but-brilliant solutions: the right way, the wrong way, and the spectacularly impractical way only a comic-scientist could suggest. Whether it’s landing a plane, digging a hole, or surviving bizarre hypothetical scenarios, this book blends engineering insight, stick-figure charm, and deadpan humor to make learning feel effortless and fun.

What If?
What If? offers hilarious and informative answers to the strange questions fans send to xkcd.com. Munroe applies scientific reasoning, careful calculations, and a playful tone to tackle queries like “How many humans would a T. rex need to eat in New York?” or “When (if ever) did the sun go down on the British Empire?” The result is a satisfying mix of rigorous thought experiments and accessible explanations that delight both teens and adults.
