“The people's guide to paradox."“A great companion during this pundemic!”“Quintessential quandaries for the quarantine. Hard laughs for hard times!""For people in no shape for the human condition.""A real iconoclassic!--- All humor is philosophy. But Ludwig Wittgenstein went further and wrote: "An entire treatise of philosophy could be written that consists entirely of jokes." Author Evan Hodkins similarly wrote: "The next religion will consist of nothing more than an expansive catalog of humor." And poet Cesar Cruz famously said all art should "comfort the disturbed, and disturb the comfortable." And now, dear reader, you have stumbled upon a curious but relatable collection of all-original jokes that blends these ideas together into easy-to-digest, family-friendly, bite-sized nuggets -- "laughorisms" known as the The Eisenberg Principles! ---"The book that happened while you were making other plans.""For people in recovery from the self-help industry."“A book about impermanence that will last forever!"---(From the Preface.) It's rare to find a trifecta of thought streams and modalities as unexpectedly intertwined as what we find in this one-of-a-kind collection of original, one-sentence jokes, aphorisms (or "laughorisms") known as The Eisenberg Principles. In these one-sentence vignettes, the fields of philosophy, physics, and psychology are married into uproariously funny trysts of paradoxical play, each one like a piece of deluxe brain-candy which is no less serious in its treatment of the human condition as it is absurd. We are not only afforded a chance to glimpse into the thoughts of this wondrously twisted thinker, we are challenged to follow him into the surprising and impossible rabbit holes of language he unearths on every page.F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time -- and still retain the ability to function." This catalog of contradictory humor is a collection of "modern Zen koans" that puts you through Fitzgerald's test, playing with the principles of paradox, polarity, and incongruity to take you from the "comforts of cliché" to the "chasms of contradiction" with just a few strokes of a pen.---"The book about quieting the mind that everyone is talking about!""A revolutionary approach to maintaining the status quo!""For people in recovery form the self-help industry."---"Many of the jokes Eisenberg unspools have the psychic charge of a Zen koan, the brevity and immediacy of a haiku, and aim to capture the absurdity of an existence that can make the most sense when efforts to comprehend it are fully abandoned." Charles Brennan, Boulder Daily Camera."Eisenberg uses verbal gymnastics to twist and stretch the boundaries of logic, throwing the semantics of everyday expressions into question - hopefully stirring our collective conversation about meaning and consciousness forward." Michael Travers, EJIThis is the small-print/pocketbook size. There is also a large-print 5x8 size book for sale on Amazon, found by clicking on "All Three Versions" and exploring the drop-down menu)."When we said humor can lead to enlightenment, we were not joking!" ~Gregg Eisenberg----Enjoy a few hilarious clips of the author reading from this book in the Museum of Boulder (Colorado) in Oct. 2019: https://cutt.ly/ArqYzDs.Enjoy an in-depth interview with the author about the various streams of ideas running through his material: https://cutt.ly/6rqYlIb

I bought this book based on good reviews. Unfortunately I didn't find the book funny or enlightening. It is a tiny, pocket-sized book of random puns highlighting contradictions that pop into the author's mind: things like "I'm a great listener, I love to hear myself talk," and "I would travel the seven seas to get away from being another washed-up cliche."
