Publisher's Synopsis
Dr. Gerald A. Walford's major emphasis in his studies for his Ph.D. was in the area of humor. His research was to find the whys, hows and meanings of humor. Jokes and humor do not just happen. There is usually a message and meaning. This book is about the deeper meaning of humor with humorous incidents to expound on the theme. Play and sports are rich with humor and is perhaps one of the reasons they are so much fun. There are many books that tell funny and humorous incidents in sports, but this book is probably the only one that gets deeper into the meaning and why and how humor is used. This book is based on research and studies of humor.
