Napalm and Silly Putty

Napalm and Silly Putty is a 2001 book by comedian George Carlin.

The title derives from one of the observations in the book: Carlin finds it interesting that the same race can invent something as fun and innocent as Silly Putty and something as deadly as napalm — the two have many similar properties.

The hardcover edition of Napalm and Silly Putty was on New York Times Best Seller list for 20 straight weeks.

The audiobook received a Grammy Award, Carlin's fourth, in February 2002.

The audiobook edition was published by HighBridge Audio, an imprint of Recorded Books.
