Аннотация:This volume investigates the mechanisms and psychological aspects of humor related to specialised work environments, and foregrounds its role as one of the building blocks that shape the discourse, culture and identity of specilised communities. Through a cross-disciplinary approach, this book brings together an international team of authors using state-of-the art research to analyse varieties, characteristics and functions of humour in and across a wide range of specilaised fields including law, policing, banking, marketing, and mental health, among many others.
