Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 371 Pages with a Four-Page Bibliography. Light wear to cover corners and edges. No other defects noted to this tight, bright book with flawless interior text pages. This compilation of jokes, anecdotes, one-liners, and parables is the result of two lifetime experiences. One of those experiences has to do with the author's forty years of medical practice. The other has to do with forty plus more years of old fashioned human relations and the forging and accumulation of a lifetime of friendships. They are, perhaps, complementary experiences. While science and medicine are the critical elements of medicine, the human element is sometimes equally, if not of greater importance. Attitude often seems to carry the day for patients, and brought a healing that science and medicine alone seemed unable to accomplish. That healthy altitude associated with humor-with the ability to laugh at one's own infirmities is of paramount importance to physical healing. Humor is not laughing at others, but with others. The leading category in this book derives from the most ancient, still popular, common, and shared jokes, that have to do with Male and Female relations. Other categories follow as shown here. Contents in Seven Parts: Male Female Sex Urology Men Only Jokes Women's Jokes Sex Urology, Religion Philosophy Government Lawyers Patriotism Political, Sports Golf Baseball Basketball, Ethnic Jokes Aggie Cajun Bubba Redneck Irish Jewish, Numbers Tests, Seniors, and Miscellaneous. Don't look for political correctness here.
