Description:
<p><i>Reveals the hard facts behind the laughter on TV’s most popular sitcom</i></p>
<p>The highest-rated scripted show on TV, <i>The Big Bang Theory</i> often features Sheldon, Howard, Leonard, and Raj wisecracking about scientific principles as if Penny and the rest of us should know exactly what they’re talking about.</p>
<p><i>The Science of TV’s The Big Bang Theory</i> lets all of us in on the punchline by breaking down the show’s scientific conversations. From an explanation of why Sheldon would think 73 is the best number, to an experiment involving the physical stature of Wolowitz women, to an argument refuting Sheldon’s assertion that engineers are the Oompa-Loompas of science, author Dave Zobel maintains a humorous and informative approach and gives readers enough knowledge to make them welcome on Sheldon’s couch.</p>
