An enjoyable comical look at factual science - By: , 15 Nov 1998 
Nick Arnold has a wonderful way of making science interesting from a different view. The designs & cartoons are really good. I like it that you can dipin anywherein the book without having to read from front cover to back. I especially enjoyed the prospectus style clips & the graphical subject titles that encouraged me to read that section. The front cover is fun & eyecatching I have all 8 (to date) Horrible Science books & eagerly await Nick's next book.
