I gave copies of this marvelous collection to everyone I know with an IT or Web dev bent for Christmas. And I know A LOT of them, so I'm pretty sure they had to do another print run ;-).
Seriously, makes a great gift for a geek. And, although I am not smart or IT-ish enough to get all the jokes, I got enough of them to wholeheartedly enjoy my own copy as well.

xkcd takip etmekten asla sıkılmadığım webcomiclerden birisi. Çoğunu ezbere biliyor olsam da kitabı okumak kesinlikle sıkmadı. Belki Randall'ın zekasından, belki de içine eklediği birtakım sürprizlerden dolayı, o kısmından tam emin değilim. Ama kesinlikle okunması ve el altında tutulması gereken bir kitap.
Got this as part of a HumbleBundle. If you like the webcomic then you'll like this book. If you don't, you won't...
Its always a pleasure to go back to these. Been reading them for years and some of them were pure nostalgia.
It's XKCD, but in paper form. All the geekiness, none of the monitor eyestrain. Since the originals of some of the early strips are lost, so this isn't a straight chronological listing of strips, but a collection of Munroe's favourites. The tooltip texts are all present, usually inserted below the strip, or in between panels, and there is new stuff as well, with some being commentary on strips, some random doodles and some random-looking codes that are probably very funny if I could be bothered decoding them. Which I can't.
Profound. Obscure. Laugh-out-loud funny. Put-the-book-down insightful. xkcd adds meaning to my life.
