University of Maryland's Robert Provine's work (and book) on laughter is also a must. See:

Lilienfeld, Ph.D. Professor Department of Psychology, Room 473 Emory University 36 Eagle Row Atlanta, Georgia 30322 sli...@emory.edu; 404-727-1125 The Master in the Art of Living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his intellectual passions. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him - he is always doing both. - Zen Buddhist text (slightly modified) -----Original Message----- From: Jim Clark [mailto:j.cl...@uwinnipeg.ca] Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2012 2:57 PM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Subject: Re: [tips] gelatology Hi See Rod Martin at U of Western Ontario http://psychology.uwo.ca/faculty/martin_res.htm Rod's site mentions a book on Psychology of Humour.

Aside from Norm Cousins, can anyone point me in the right direction as far as readings, potential syllabi, activities, and any other nugget you want to supply? As I said, this is still very much in the formative stages and I have done some Google searching, but some guidance would also be nice.
