Anatomy of Humor

Humor permeates every aspect of society and has done so for thousands of years. People experience it daily through television, newspapers, literature, and contact with others. The types of jokes a person enjoys contribute significantly to the definition of that person as well as to the character of a given society. Berger shows how humor can range from the simple pun to complex plots in Elizabethan plays, in the process exploring why humor is such a dominating force in our lives.Berger, Arthur Asa is the author of 'Anatomy of Humor' with ISBN 9781560000860 and ISBN 1560000864.
