...but it's not supposed to be.

Ok, "if you are looking for a joke book this is not the right book for you." You're right, because it isn't a joke book, and doesn't claim to be. To quote the opening of chapter one: "What do you think of us writing a book about using humor successfully?" we asked many of our friends. "Another joke book?" some responded. "No, a book about the importance of humor, as well as how to use it to persuade, entertain, resolve tension, settle, arguments and reach other people in a special way..." The difference is that a regular joke book would have just that: jokes. This one takes a step back and looks at the 500 jokes given (which really were good) and takes a look at WHY they are funny. Not only did it turn out to be an interesting subject to study, it's also helps the reader to tell jokes better. It talks about how to keep jokes from falling flat, how to recover in case one actually does fall flat, how to come up with an impromtu, situations when a good joke would be useful and what kind would be best. I really enjoyed the book, and laughed out loud all through it.
