Science...For Her!

Hailed as one of Rolling Stone’s “25 Funniest People on Twitter” and Forbes' "30 Under 30 in Arts & Entertainment," comedy writer and Twitter sensation Megan Amram showcases her mordant wit and gift for satire in Science…For Her!, a laugh-until-you-can’t-breathe “expert” compendium of scientific knowledge that Megan believes is absolutely vital for the female population. Part hilarious farce, part biting gender commentary, Amram blends science education and Cosmo to highlight the absurd way in which women are still portrayed in both fields. Operating under the conceit that “science is hard enough for most people, let alone women,” Amram tackles crucial scientific topics like Biology: This Spring’s Ten Most Glamorous Ways to Die (“Choke to death on a latte”); Chemistry: Periodic Table Settings (“one of the most important building blocks of chemistry. But boy does it look drab!”); Earth Science: Fashion Staples for Each Step of Global Warming; Space and Technology: Tips for Hosting Your Own Big Bang, and the most pressing issue facing women today, kale. Science…For Her! combines the off-beat humor of Amy Sedaris, the mock-expertise of John Hodgeman, and Amram’s signature voice, and the result is a satirical gem of the highest order.
