Outstanding examples of biting and accurate parody of the human and animal worlds

Rating:

In the foreword, noted zoologist Stephen Jay Gould comments on how popular the Gary Larson cartoons are with biologists. When reading the book, it is easy to see why; Larson does an excellent job in his satire of science and the people that do it. They are hilarious, yet as is always the case in the best of parody, contain more than a little truth. Light hearted with a little bite, these cartoons are expressions of absurdity that point out the inherent absurdity of the modern world and human and animal nature.
