Book excerpt: On August 11th, 2014, the world was stunned to learn that Robin Williams had taken his own life. He was a beloved funnyman, and his movies and comedy had touched people around the globe. His suicide made people once again wonder about the link between comedy and tragedy, and why it is that so many comedians meet tragic ends. In this book the author (a psychologist and former comedian) explores this question, and analyzes Robin's life as well as Bernie Mac's and Phil Hartman's to try and provide further clarity regarding why it is so many people who make us laugh meet such sad and tragic endings.
