By: William Hartston     
The first mainstream history of humour. Hilarious and well-researched, this book from household name William Hartston, a presenter, author and journalist, makes a perfect gift.

Of all human qualities, humour is perhaps the most puzzling. In this very first history of humour, author and humourist William Hartston looks at every aspect of the evolution of humour and our attitudes towards it with a view to developing a proper Theory Of Everything Humorous.

From comedy in ancient Greece and jokes in ancient Rome, to laughter in the Bible and the secret of comic delivery; from how humour changed following the American civil war, to how Mark Twain changed written comedy in the English-speaking world, William leaves no stone unturned in his quest to understand what makes us chuckle. Besides being academically well-founded, A History of Humour will, unlike almost everything else written on the subject, be both seriously humorous and humorously serious.

A Coat That Doubles as a Physics Experiment
The coat looks fine, but trying it on felt like stepping into a physics experiment. The 100% polyester fabric generated so much static electricity that I honestly felt like a walking electrical generator. If you enjoy shocking yourself and everything around you, this is the coat for you. Otherwise… be prepared.

Weird pockets
Size: Medium, Color: Brown
It was a nice coat but the fabric was shimmery and the front pockets were very high. It was very awkward looking. Overall it was nice fabric and a good length but the pockets and the shimmer made it a return for us.
