Department of Mind-Blowing Theories

by Tom Gauld

Description

In this witty collection of single-page cartoons from New Scientist, the world of STEM becomes a playground for absurd hypotheses, bureaucratic mishaps, and wonderfully flawed human behavior. Tom Gauld turns his distinctive literary humor toward scientists, engineers, laboratories, and the occasional science-fiction scenario, gently poking fun at professional jargon, academic rivalries, and the gap between brilliant theories and everyday confusion. Beneath the satire lies genuine admiration for scientific curiosity and the people who pursue it—uncertain, argumentative, imaginative, and gloriously fallible. A sharp, affectionate, and side-splitting celebration of science and the humans behind it.
