Humor, like pornography, is famously difficult to define. We know it when we see it, but is there a way to figure out what we really find funnyand why? In this fascinating investigation into the science of humor and laughter, cognitive neuroscientist Scott Weems uncovers what’s happening in our heads when we giggle, guffaw, or double over with laughter. While we typically think of humor in terms of jokes or comic timing, in Ha! Weems proposes a provocative new model.

Lo reconocemos nada más verlo, pero es difícil definir el humor. En esta fascinante investigación, Scott Weems analiza, desde un punto de vista neurológico, pero también psicológico, antropológico y cultural, los mecanismos y resortes de la risa, así como sus beneficios probados. Tratar de explicar una broma es un despropósito, pero eso no ha impedido a los pensadores, de Aristóteles a Bergson, pasando por Kant y Nietzsche, construir amplias y sutiles teorías de la risa. Sin embargo, ninguno de ellos contaba con la información que aporta un escáner.
