Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book puts forward a revolutionary and comprehensive theoretical approach to understanding laughter and the humor we use to inspire it.

And it sheds light on the social dynamics governing human interactions, both positive and negative, by recognizing laughter not as a reflexive reaction to a certain class of stimuli, but as a vital form of nonverbal communication not only for us, but for our great ape cousins as well. 308 pp. Englisch.…
