Laugh while you learn about American Culture. What's So Funny? is a unique, many-angled approach to break through the cultural and linguistic barriers to American humor. It was designed for intermediate and advanced college conversation classes, foreign business people, immigrants and visitors to the U.S.--and anyone else curious about why Americans laugh.

The jokes are in categories: school, children, college, professors, men, women, marriage, drunks, psychiatrists, patients, policemen, bosses, barbers, waiters, modern times, inflation, crime, government, politics, religion, taxes, human imperfections and stupidity.
