The Official Dr. Science Big Book of Science

1986, possibly first edition, from Contemporary Books
Dr. Science with Rodney
The Official Dr. Science Big Book of Science
Original price unknown, bought used for $3.95
Worn paperback
B-

This most reminds me of How to Regain Your Virginity (1983), with its parody of science and the 1950s illustrations (actual or similar).  I used to really enjoy the Dr. Science TV show (I've never heard the still running radio show), but I think this suffers a bit from not hearing his voice.  I kept being on the verge of laughter but never quite made it.  Still, the book provides a lot of smiles.  Also, it's got to be the first of my books to mention "cellular phones."
