SynopsisExplore the real science behind the Cartoon Network phenomenon Rick and Morty --one of television's most irreverent, whip-smart, and darkly hilarious shows--and discover how close we are to Rick's many experiments becoming a reality. Adult Swim's Rick and Morty is one of the smartest (and most insane) shows on television. Genius alcoholic Rick Sanchez and his hapless grandson Morty have explored everything from particle physics to human augmentation and much more in their intergalactic adventures through the multiverse. With biting humor and plenty of nihilism, Rick and Morty employs cutting-edge scientific theories in every episode. But, outside of Rick's garage laboratory, what are these theories truly about and what can they teach us about ourselves? Blending biology, chemistry, and physics basics with accessible--and witty--prose, The Science of Rick and Morty equips you with the scientific foundation to thoroughly understand Rick's experiments from the show, such as how we can use dark matter and energy, just what is intelligence hacking, and whether or not you can really control a cockroach's nervous system with your tongue. Perfect for longtime and new fans of the show, this is the ultimate segue into discovering more about our complicated and fascinating universe., Explore the real science behind the Cartoon Network phenomenon Rick and Morty--one of television's most irreverent, whip-smart, and darkly hilarious shows--and discover how close we are to Rick's many experiments becoming a reality.

Using the biology, chemistry, and physics of the series, expert science writer Matt Brady explains the biggest questions occupying today's greatest minds, including: Can we have cool cybernetic enhancements? Will we ever be able to alter our basic intelligence? How far will we be able to go with cloning? Could we travel to parallel universes? What energy could you get from a microverse battery? And can you control a cockroach's nervous system with your tongue? So, become more Rick and less Morty with this stroll through the portal modern-day science. ...Or just go back to laughing at the stupid jokes. Book jacket.
