Cartoonist Richard Thompson contributed illustrations to a 1996 science book.
Mike Rhode informs us:
[W]e’ve recently been told of a book where Richard contributed over a score of drawings, and we’ll share some of them with you. Richard’s drawings were used in the 1996 edition called Everyday Science Explained and then reprinted in 2003. His ability to do scientific cartoons was well established by this point as he’d been illustrating Why Things Are with Joel Achenbach for the Washington Post
Mike has posted those drawings to the Cul de Sac blog.
