THE chemical warfare agent, "nitrogen mustard " or methyl bis (,8-chloroethyl) amine, has come to the notice of the clinician lately on *account of its beneficial effect upon Hodgkin's disease, the ieucaemias and some neoplasms (Gilman and Philips, 1946).

This paper proposes that cognitive humour can be modelled using the mathematical framework of quantum theory, suggesting that a Quantum Theory of Humour (QTH) is a viable approach. We begin with brief overviews of both research on humour, and the generalized quantum framework. We show how the bisociation of incongruous frames or word meanings in jokes can be modelled as a linear superposition o...
