Questioning society and one’s place in it is a common theme in both comedy and sociology. Understanding and subverting hierarchies and norms, exploring deviance and taboos, and relating lived experience to broader questions all hold a crucial place for them both. Introduction to Sociology Through Comedy teaches foundational sociological concepts using comedy, first considering the history of sociology before employing examples from comedians – including standalone comedy bits, sketches, characters, and scenes – to illustrate a specific theory, concept, or social phenomenon. The profession of comedy is then used as a case study for the application of sociological concepts, such as impression management, social stratification, racial segregation, deviance, and stigma, allowing readers to gain familiarity with the concepts while simultaneously practicing their application. This book explains why we laugh by applying theories of humor, which will bolster students’ understanding of sociological principles by forcing them to question their own assumptions – helping them to put why they laugh into sociological terms.

The Written Comprehension resources provide a set of therapy resources for use with people with aphasia focused on improving reading comprehension or reading for meaning. - The resources begin at the single word level but the focus rapidly becomes comprehension of phrase and then text level reading material. It was these areas where our experience showed available therapy material was limited. People with aphasia frequently express a goal of reading, be it headlines of a newspaper, magazines, letters from friends or novels. The therapy materials within this section aim to include material at a variety of complexity levels, but which have an everyday relevance to people with aphasia. - They are based on models of single word written processing, sentence comprehension and text or discourse processing. The theoretical rationale behind the materials and the therapy literature which inform them are discussed within the manual. Approaches to assessment of written comprehension are also discussed. - The materials themselves contain a wide range of tasks, from the single word level selecting and matching written words, through to phrase level tasks (e.g. comprehension of headlines), and paragraph level tasks (e.g. matching related paragraphs, answering questions).

The Auditory Processing resources provide a set of therapy resources for use with people with aphasia focused on the auditory processing of single words. They are suitable for use with people with aphasia who have auditory processing difficulties. A large number of stimuli and range of difficulty levels allow extended practice and also carefully graded therapy steps. There are several types of task, providing variety for individual clients. The resources contain a set of excellent drawings, produced exclusively for these resources which provide the user with a rich set of therapy materials. - To provide the user with background and particularly with the theoretical rationale for the materials, the manual contains discussion of the underlying reasons for auditory processing difficulties, the theoretical models used to interpret them, assessment and therapeutic approaches that have been reported in the literature. - The materials contained in the resources are then introduced and include the following tasks: 1. Auditory word-written word matching. In this task an array of written words is presented which are phonologically related to each other. The person hears one of the words and has to select which word they heard.
