    Default Amusing authors

    My pal's son is doing his Chemistry homework. His textbook is written by Norman Conquest. Shouldn't he be writing history textbooks?

    Do you know any amusing authors' names? Real ones like this, not jokes.

    Sorry if this is bumping a dead thread, but found A History of Experimental Psychology by Edwin G. Boring.

    I once used a book called Marine Diesel Engines by CC Pounder!
    He has a profound respect for old age. Especially when it's bottled.
