The Cartoon Guide to Biology

Excellent book and and a fine complement to the Cartoon Guide to Physics and the Cartoon Guide to Chemistry by the same author. I did not purchase the Kindle version, so I can't answer for the negative experience those readers have had. If you're buying the print version, this is a great book which comprehensively and accessibly breaks down a complex subject into easy - and amusing - chunks. It has certainly helped me reconnect with biology after many years. 5 stars!

I can't speak for the digital format (as other reviewers have thus far) but the soft-cover version is great. I own several of Gonick's books and the content of this one is on-par with his other works. Clever and informative, per usual.

Interesting book

I gave it 4 stars for clarity. This book would probably be best for high school students or someone who dropped out of high school and wants to put forth as little effort as possible to learn biology. Not as entertaining as I had hoped, but I may write a better one next year.

Larry Gonick is a genius! This little book cover so much contents. It helps greatly in understanding basic concepts in biology and biochemistry

I was pleasantly surprised the book is advanced to help me with MCAT prep. It’s actually helping me digest complex topics like cellular metabolism.

Fun for kids

Great content, clearly explaining key concepts in biology.Book arrived damaged, with part of the flimsy cover torn and the spine damaged. Frustrating, since it was a gift.
