The human brain remains the last great unconquered frontier of science. Somehow, that almost featureless mass of grey sludge locked inside our skulls creates a whole inner world populated by emotions, memories, ideas, desires. Everything we see, touch, hear and feel the illusion of reality is conjured up by this inscrutable organ. For centuries, scientists have probed and analysed the brains every lobe and crevice, searching for clues that might shed the faintest glimmer of light on its mysterious workings but to no avail. Now, however, the brain has slowly begun to yield its secrets. Incredible advances in scanning technology that show the human brain working at full tilt are dispelling once and for all the notion that the brain works like a well-organized machine, with centres for emotion, reason, language or memory. In this highly readable and often mind-boggling tour through the brains workings, Susan Greenfield brings the reader right up to date on the latest theories and controversies of neuroscience. Drawing together many different strands of research from studies of the bizarre and disturbing effects of brain injuries to attempts to model the brain in silicon she tackles head-on the questions that have baffled philosophers and scientists since antiquity. Where are memories stored? Are our brains a product of nature or nurture? Will we ever build thinking robots? And are free will and consciousness nothing more than illusions produced by the subconscious mind? The picture that emerges is one of an incredibly complex and dynamic organ, full of astonishing surprises. Illustrated with the latest brain-scanning images that are revolutionizing neuroscience, this book which accompanies the BBC television series Brain Story gives a fascinating new insight into just what makes us tick.

The compelling, groundbreaking guide to creative writing that reveals how the brain responds to storytelling Stories shape who we are. They drive us to act out our dreams and ambitions and mold our beliefs. Storytelling is an essential part of what makes us human. So, how do master storytellers compel us? In The Science of Storytelling, award-winning writer and acclaimed teacher of creative writing Will Storr applies dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to our myths and archetypes to show how we can write better stories, revealing, among other things, how storytellers—and also our brains—create worlds by being attuned to moments of unexpected change. Will Storr’s superbly chosen examples range from Harry Potter to Jane Austen to Alice Walker, Greek drama to Russian novels to Native American folk tales, King Lear to Breaking Bad to children’s stories. With sections such as “The Dramatic Question,” “Creating a World,” and “Plot, Endings, and Meaning,” as well as a practical, step-by-step appendix dedicated to “The Sacred Flaw Approach,” The Science of Storytelling reveals just what makes stories work, placing it alongside such creative writing classics as John Yorke’s Into the Woods: A Five-Act Journey into Story and Lajos Egri’s The Art of Dramatic Writing. Enlightening and empowering, The Science of Storytelling is destined to become an invaluable resource for writers of all stripes, whether novelist, screenwriter, playwright, or writer of creative or traditional nonfiction.
