otaku usa magazine on
the manga guide to physics
“The art is charming and the humor engaging. A fun and fairly painless lesson on what
many consider to be a less-than-thrilling subject.”
school library journal on
the manga guide to statistics
“This is really what a good math text should be like. Unlike the majority of books on
subjects like statistics, it doesn’t just present the material as a dry series of pointless-
seeming formulas. It presents statistics as something
fun,
and something enlightening.”

“I found the cartoon approach of this book so compelling
and its story so endearing that I recommend that every
teacher of introductory physics, in both high school and
college, consider using it.”

“A single tortured cry will escape the lips of every thirty-
something biochem major who sees
The Manga Guide to
Molecular Biology:
‘Why, oh why couldn’t this have been
written when I was in college?’”
the san francisco examiner
“A lot of fun to read. The interactions between the char-
acters are lighthearted, and the whole setting has a sort
of quirkiness about it that makes you keep reading just for
the joy of it.”

an amusing storyline and wrap it in cartoons.”

rocks and recommend it to anyone working with or just interested in databases.”

interested in statistics as opposed to a regular textbook.”

mere textbook.”
