All of science in 52 pages; definitely not useful for learning anything about a subject you don't know anything about (see title!) but funny if you already know something about them. My favourite joke is the one about Physics stealing all of the recent Chemistry developments; it's funny because it is true (and I am a physicist).

"Humans were once thought to be systematic thinkers, then thought to be stupid, then finally proven to be systemically stupid."

Good. Shorter than I expected it to be.

Everything in reality appears to be moving away from you as fast as it can.


This book is pure comedy gold. It covers the "entirety" of science in a quick 30-minute read.

A hilarious and yet disturbingly accurate view of many sciences through the lens of the creator of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.
