Tom Gauld

Department of Mind-Blowing Theories (eBook, ePUB)

Science Cartoons

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A dog philosopher questions what it really means to be a 'good boy'. A virtual assistant and a robot-cleaner elope. The undiscovered species and the theoretical particle face existential despair. Just as he did with writers, poets and literary classics in Baking with Kafka, Gauld now does with hapless scientists, nanobots, and puzzling theorems - with comic strips funny enough to engage science boffins and novices alike.

Rezensionen

Gauld is my favourite hyper-minimalist brainiac cartoonist, and Department Of Mind-Blowing Theories is my favourite of his collections so far WILLIAM GIBSON
