Book Review – The Healing Power of Humor

The Healing Power of Humor: Techniques for Getting through Loss, Setbacks, Upsets, Disappointments, Difficulties, Trials, Tribulations, and All That Not-So-Funny Stuff by Allen Klein not only has the longest title of any book I’ve read (to the best of my recollection), but it also has some great advice on how to use humor to feel better, despite your circumstances. It is true that sometimes the only thing you can control is your own attitude, and seeing things with a humorous glint in your eye can help. Even if you don’t believe that there could possibly be anything funny about death, cancer, hospitals, or lost luggage, read the book for the stories. They’re great.
