The Laugh-Makers: Stand-Up Comedy As Art, Business, and Life-Style
"Stand-up comedy is a new occupation; and this book is, so far as I know, the only contribution to the field!  It is also a useful contribution to the sociology of occupations."  Anthony Synnott, Department of Sociology, Concordia University.  "There is nothing else so meticulously researched in Canada, nor, probably, anywhere else ... the documentation is so good and so unique ... [This] book has the unusual potential of being both an academic book and a popular one."  I. Davies, Department of Sociology, York University.
