"Perfect for anyone wanting to understand the basics of Computer Science."
—Cesar Hidalgo, professor at the MIT Media Lab, author of Why Information Grows

—Jamis Buck, author of Mazes for Programmers
"Read it with the kids and spent more than an hour arguing about different sock-sorting algorithms. Was great fun!"

Praise for An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments
"A very good book every scientist should have. Every scholar, really."
—Hope Jahren, author of Lab Girl

—Jenny Bristol, GeekDad.com
"Bad arguments, great illustrations . . . gorgeous."
—Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing.net

—Alice Roberts, PhD, anatomist, writer, and presenter of The Incredible Human Journey
"This little book takes a potentially ponderous subject (logical fallacies) and makes it wonderfully entertaining."
—Omaha World-Herald
"[A] handsome newcomer’s guide to the world of logic . . . Almossawi and his McSweeney’s-ready artist Giraldo accessibly tackle such classic subjects as circular reasoning, false dilemma, straw man, appeal to ignorance, and genetic fallacy . . . an attractive, substantive read."
—John Wenzel, Denver Post blog
"A great primer for anyone looking to understand logical fallacies . . . Pass it along to the arguers—good and bad—in your life."
—Lauren Davis, io9
"[A] wonderful primer on the logical fallacies that have been screwing up our thinking . . . since shortly after the invention of dirt."
—Ron Kretsch, DangerousMinds.net
