Thanks for pointing that out; I never would have noticed it, and it still took some hunting to find notation of who the artist was...as far as I can find, they're only mentioned in Takahashi's thank you paragraph at the end of the preface.

I like seeing school material presented in new ways. It's not the first I've heard of academic manga, though. Last year Kaplan produced an SAT-themed manga. I found it be a bit too contrived; hopefully this stats manga does better. If you're interested, I covered the SAT manga in http://www.teamuptutors.com/resources/blog/2007/08/relinquish-control-of-this-junebug-or-burn/ (or click on my name, above)... -Leon Thanks for posting… I like seeing school material presented in new ways.
