Cunningham's books include
Psychiatric Tales (2010,
Blank Slate Books) and
Science Tales (2013,
Myriad Editions). The foreword for the American edition of
Science Tales, entitled
How to Fake a Moon Landing: Exploring the Myths of Science Denial, was written by
Andrew Revkin.
Psychiatric Tales received a positive review in
The Observer from
Rachel Cooke, who wrote that it was "an unsettling but rewarding experience." Cian O'Luanaigh also reviewed the book favourably, writing that it provides "an enlightening look at mental illness."
Science Tales also received critical acclaim, for instance from
New Scientist, who wrote that Cunningham's "charming artwork complements his concise arguments". The book was also called "fantastic" by
Cory Doctorow, who wrote that Cunningham "has a real gift for making complex subjects simple."
Billionaires describes the lives and influence of
Jeff Bezos,
Rupert Murdoch, and the
Koch brothers. In May 2024 his graphic novel on
Elon Musk, titled
Elon Musk: Investigation into a New Master of the World, was published in France to good reviews. However it struggled to find an English-language publisher, which Cunningham attributed to a "climate of fear" from "legal consequences". In addition to his books, Cunningham is well known for his comic strips, which have appeared on the website of
Forbidden Planet, and have also been featured in the
Act-i-vate collective. Additionally, his biography of
Ayn Rand has been featured on
io9, and his strip about
global warming, posted on his blog in December 2010, has been featured on
Phil Plait's blog
Bad Astronomy, with Plait saying that Cunningham is "careful to present the facts, and to be balanced where called for." He has also created several
webcomic strips, including
Super-Sam and John-of-the-Night and
The Streets of San Diablo. == Bibliography ==
