I am more of a Penny than a Leonard or Sheldon, but I got a chuckle out of a few of these.

If you don't know anything about how "science" is "done" then you won't find this funny. If, however, you have some background in science, or are friends with people in the science departments of halls of academe, then you will not only enjoy this, you will find yourself imitating the facial expressions of the characters as you read, and find yourself muttering "That's so true!" a lot.

Collection of science-themed cartoons from SMBC. Some are fantstic, some are middling; overall the collection is very good.

So many LOL moments in this book!!!

I also found the last section, which is basically a bunch of “short non-fiction autobiographical comic-strip anecdotes told by semi-famous scientists” to be quite enjoyable!

- You have 3 wishes! you may wish for anything but more wishes.
= I wish that wishes were measured in absolute value. And, I wish for 1,000,002 fewer wishes.


Clever:)

'The scientific community has not welcomed my "quantum threesome" concept.'

As a follower of SMBC comics I Kickstarted this book. The old comics I had read before, but we delightful to revisit. The additional comics are as nerdy as the intro disclaimer states. And the true science tales are a rare and wonderful glimpse into the life of scientists that most people don't get to see. And of course Zach's illustrations are hilarious.
