Acerbic dark humour meets hardcore science in this mind-boggling exploration of the nine worst ways the world could end
Discover the mind-boggling science of the coming apocalypse!
''Curiously pleasurable… this will help you get your everyday problems into perspective.'' Independent
Which will get us first? The supervolcano in Yellowstone National Park? An asteroid hurtling through outer space? Black holes from CERN gobbling up the solar system? An army of deranged, super-intelligent AI? Or – who knows – alien invasion?
Armed with lavish illustrations and their one-of-a-kind ''Catastrophometer'', Dr David Darling and Dr Dirk Schulze-Makuch introduce the disasters you never saw coming, unpicking the science that makes them genuine possibilities, and providing everything from survival tips to danger ratings. So sit back, face the inevitable, and discover the delights of the nine oddest ways the world could end.
