Isn't That Clever provides a new account of the nature of humor -
the cleverness account - according to which humor is intentional
conspicuous acts of playful cleverness. By defining humor in this
way, answers can be found to longstanding questions about humor
ethics (Are there jokes that are wrong to tell? Are there jokes
that can only be told by certain people?) and humor aesthetics
(What makes for a good joke? Is humor subjective?). In addition to
humor in general, Isn't That Clever asks questions about comedy as
an art form such as whether there are limits to what can be said in
dealing with a heckler and how do we determine whether one comedian
has stolen jokes from another.
