Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Pons Asinorum Or The Future of Nonsense George Edinger and E J C Neep Originally published in 1929. "A most entertaining essay, rich in quotation from the old masters of clownship's craft." Saturday Review The author maintains that true nonsense must be aimless humour - the humour that makes fun as opposed to the humour that makes fun of something. 88pp Democritus Or The Future of Laughter Gerald Gould Originally published in 1929. "Democritus is bound to be among the favourites of the series. Gould's humour glances at history, morality, and humanity...wise and witty writing." Observer Democritus is intended to illustrate the prevailing fashion in laughter and on the basis of historical and philosophical principles to forecast the humour of the future. 90pp Mrs Fisher Or The Future of Humour Robert Graves Originally published in 1928 "Mr Graves is the best man who could have been chosen to write on this subject." Daily Express "...perfectly irresponsible, as a joker should be." The Times This volume analyzes humour with a solemnity which becomes almost nightmarish. 90pp Babel Or the Past, Present and Future of Human Speech Richard Paget Originally published in 1930. "...stimulating and absorbing." Journal of Education This volume discusses human speech and treats it as a growth which must be tamed if it is to fulfil its highest purpose as a symbolism for human thought. 86pp

In this hilarious account of a debt collection agency, the reader is introduced to five categories of excuses debtor's use to escape paying their bills. Phone dialogue and excerpts from letters are included. Gould describes a possible scenario how the collection industry began with the cave men. A brief history from antiquity through Irish Brehon Law to modern practices culminates with the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. In 1988, Gerry Gould was named Instructor of the Year by the Association for Credit and Collection Professionals (ACA) International. The rich history of the ACA is highlighted throughout the book. Having an entertaining way of telling a story and teaching that enamored him to his students and fellow professional debt collectors, Gerry's book is a must read for anyone touched by this industry -- collectors, doctors, whom his Royal Collection Agency represented, and yes, even debtors. This is the second book B.B. Gould wrote based on Gerry's motivational writings. GG's Principle: Three Steps to Empower You in Any Situation was published in 2011.
