A Stress Analysis of a Strapless Evening Gown

Robert Baker; Prentice-Hall, 1982. 0-13-852608-7.

Amazon customer review -- Science Geek Humor ... if you don't like science, you won't like this book. But if you've spent too many hours in a lab coat working on your advisor's projects while you own languishes in a corner, this might appeal. ...if you appreciate the difference between a lipid and a lipstick, you may enjoy this. My favorites in the book: "Psychoanalysis of Missle Failures" and "Hiawatha's Lipid"

This book has been mentioned in the following pages of the Jargon File: Finagle's Law.
