Humor that accurately represents humans and the foolish ways they act

There is no humor quite like that found in Mad Magazine. It is always funny, occasionally spiteful, often biting, sometimes sarcastic, and generally contains an enormous amount of truth. In other words, it accurately represents humans and their foibles. This collection is "dedicated" to fathers, how their actions affect our lives, and how they can be so absurd. I enjoyed this collection of essays and cartoons. For better or worse, I occasionally recognized myself and how my daughter (I am a dad) and I interact. Some of the best humor is that which makes us laugh and recognize and reevaluate some of our actions and character traits. This book contains that kind of humor.
