Will Storr's The Science of Storytelling: Why Stories Make Us Human, and How to Tell Them Better is a scalpel-sharp, thought-provoking book that demonstrates how master storytellers manipulate and compel us.

Leading us on a journey from the Hebrew scriptures to Mr Men, from Booker Prize-winning literature to box set TV, The Science of Storytelling applies dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to the foundations of our myths and archetypes; showing how we can use these tools to tell better stories – and make sense of our chaotic modern world.
