| If you've seen a science-related cartoon in a book, magazine, or scientific talk recently, there's a good chance you may have seen the work of science cartoonist Sidney Harris. Harris is the author of the new book "101 Funny Things About Global Warming," a collection of environmental cartoons. In this segment, Joe Palca talks with Sidney Harris about how serious science can be funny. |
