A fascinating insight into what makes us tick, and particularly what makes comedians tick! I had expected it to be more a look at the human mind with witty insights from leading comics but it's more a look into whether comedians are different to everyone else, which is slightly odd. It is still a very interesting book but not quite what I expected. There were parts where I found my concentration wavering, and you do have to concentrate but I think that was probably just me and not a flaw in the book. There were some laugh out loud parts and some very moving parts - it's nice to know I'm not alone in my weird thoughts! This is an incredibly interesting look into what it's like to be a comedian and what it's like to be a human!
