[Jeff Lewonczyk · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent collection of satire from approx. 1960-80, most of which, aiming at universal points, ages quite well. It's a sign of the times in which the book was published that the subjects are entirely white men (a combination of American and European); I'd love to see an update that addresses other voices. But the quality of the work itself is top-notch.

[Fishface · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hard-to-beat collection of political cartoons dating from 1960 to 1980. Every year I copy the one comparing trick-or-treating to international terrorism and hang it up where my co-workers can see it. The humor in this book never gets stale.
