great reading! July 19, 2008 valuable insight into the structures and history of jokes - and a great jokebook itself!
The only book about jokes you'll ever need June 11, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The quote from The Times on the back of the book is spot on: this book is four-fifths a book about the nature, history, and meaning of comedy, and one-fifth the only joke book you'll ever need.
A lot of the analysis in this book is very straight, and to make up for the fact that the main text, though very interesting, is not necessarily laugh-a-minute, they put a classic and relevant joke at the bottom of very page. Brilliantly thought out, witty, intelligent, and well worth reading.
