    Why stories make us human and how to tell them better.



    There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story - but few have used a scientific approach.


    In this incisive, thought-provoking book, award-winning writer Will Storr demonstrates how master storytellers manipulate and compel us.


    Applying dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to the foundations of our myths and archetypes, he shows how we can use these tools to tell better stories - and make sense of our chaotic modern world.
