The How to Survive a Robot Uprising of Christmas:
a dynamically illustrated, futuristic case for the
scientific possibility that Santa Claus really exists.
We all know Santa Claus: fat, jolly, omniscient,
swift. Lives in a nice home in the Arctic, with the missus
and a pack of elves. Well, forget what you know.
Santa Claus is from Greenpoint, Brooklyn, as it turns out,
and he’s not as fat as he used to be. Here’s something else
you didn’t know: he’s been dabbling in some futuristic
technology, and has found myriad ways to make his job
possible. How can Santa know who’s been naughty and nice?
Simple: implant listening devices into your ornaments. How
can he make it to every house Christmas Eve? That’s nothing
a little cloning and some wormholes can’t solve. And he has
plenty of other tactics: quantum entanglement, organ
replacement, drug-induced hibernation, and unmanned aerial
vehicles, to name just a few. In this fantastically
illustrated, affectionate, and hilarious book, Gregory Mone
uses science and technology to overturn the assumption that
Santa can’t be real. Drawing on the work of accomplished
scientists and researchers, Mone gives us a whole new
portrait of this remarkable man and the miracles he makes
happen every year. With imaginative artwork and an
eye-catching package, this book makes an outstanding
Christmas gift for just about anyone.
