This compendium of 40 currently popular young stand-up comedians runs the gamut from the ironic wit of Robert Klein to the frank and sexual humor of Marsha Warfield and the controversial Andrew Dice Clay. The combination of Edahl's lively photos and Gallo's sharp commentaries, along with samplings of the comics' best lines make this an enjoyable reading experience. Public and college libraries will find a ready audience for this title, but be aware that Clay's raunchy nursery rhymes may offend more than Mother Goose.
