Harris is the best cartoonist of matters scientific. I have one of his originals framed on my wall - a prized possession. ( )

Sidney Harris' cartoons show the lighter side of science, with gentle humor, irreverence, and peculiar perspectives. This complilation is a collection of his work that appeared during the 1970s in American Scientist, a journal well - known to professional scientists and students. The cartoons are mildly amusing, and immediately recognizable, although the topical items are a bit dated. For interested readers, many samples of Harris' work can be seen online here
