This book is a must have for aspiring comics and comedy lovers alike. Brown's book is a tool that inspires as well as guides those interested in the art of joke writing. The book includes a wide range of talent from legendary comics like Bill Cosby to the up and coming comedic stars of tomorrow. If nothing else the book allows the reader the opportunity to learn what makes these neurotic people tick.

Joke Stew is fantastic! It's a lot of fun to have on your coffee table. You can pick it up and browse for hilarious observations on any subject (great for when you need a funny quote to begin speeches and presentations).

This review is from: Joke Stew 1,349 More Hilarious Servings (Paperback)

I recently bought this book after reading an article about it in the newspaper. It is full of jokes from a wide variety of comedians. The jokes are arranged by subject and ALL (with few exceptions)of them are hilarious. Comedians in this book range from the legendary(George Carlin,Richard Pryor) to late night talk show hosts (Leno, Letterman, Johnny Carson, Dennis Miller) to brand new stand ups (Mitch Hedberg, Dave Attel)and many more. The only complaint I have about this book is that it loses the delivery of the more animated comedians which can make a few jokes sound awkward if you are not familiar with the comic. Highly recommended for fans of stand up comedy!
