 Not Funny March 14, 2008

The progression of the "Far Side" Series took a blow with this book. There is not a funny panel in it. Buy any other "Far Side" book. DO NOT BUY this one. Far Side Gallery 2 is the best one. Its all up to you to decide.
 very funny December 28, 2007

Last year, I received the book as a gift from my husband. I put it aside for almost a year. He actually finished reading it before I even gave it a chance. Last month, I started reading it and I don't regret the experience.
This book made me laugh when I needed a good laugh. It's a recommended reading for everyone who appreciates good humor.
Better masterpieces here than in that museum in Paris May 3, 2003

With a cow Mona Lisa painting on the front cover how can you go wrong? The cartoons in here are from Hound of the Far Side, The Far Side Observer and Night of the Crash Test Dummies. It may be cheaper to buy these books individually instead of this gallery so compare prices before purchasing.The advantage of owning the galleries is that some cartoons are full page size which is three times the size of the original books. Not all cartoons are full size though just some. The classic cartoon set in an exam with the bonus question (50 points) "What's the name of that thing that hangs down the back of our throats?" The caption underneath states "Final Page of the Medical Boards," is in this edition. Another has Noah saying "Now Listen Up. We're Going to do This Alphabetically," the Zebras are thinking "Damn!" The Classic "Drive George! Drive! This One's Got a Coathanger!" with a lion trying to unlock the car door to eat the woman. Should you buy it? Of course you should.
Humor and Biology--A Good Mix December 7, 1999
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Gary Larson has teamed up with Stephen Jay Gould, paleontologist and taxonomist --Harvard University, to create a biologically funny book. Humor has a purpose in this book. It is used in an attempt to cause the reader to think biologically on a macrocosmic level. Social interaction of all animals on the smallest level effects the bigger picture. I enjoyed this book very much; however, a few cartoons were biologically "over my head." With some critical thinking, all readers may be able to get the message of all the cartoons.
