Let's discuss Randall Munroe's Thing Explainer, a book explaining complex subjects using only the 1000 most common English words. The book provides a table of contents with whimsical names for various objects and concepts, followed by descriptions of several entries, illustrated with simple language and drawings. Munroe's introduction explains his aim to overcome his fear of using simple language, resulting in engaging and accessible explanations of complex mechanisms and scientific ideas. Finally, a list of the 1000 words used is included.
