Worst-Case Scenario series

Worst-Case Scenario is the name of a series of merchandise based on a 1999 book written by Joshua Piven and David Borgenicht and published by Chronicle Books.[1] The series first entry, The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook, sold over 10 million copies worldwide and prompted a series of related books, games, calendars, and two television series.[2] Later works have been published via Quirk Books and have been credited with giving the company enough funding to expand.[3]
