‘’The Science of Storytelling” by Will Storr is an absolute gem for anyone who wants to understand not just how to tell a story, but why stories work the way they do—at a deep psychological level.

This book got me in the Introduction itself. "Life has no meaning and to fill this hollow space, people need stories (adapted)"Story-Telling is an integral part of human survival. And understanding how to put up a story to trigger emotional elements of mind to keep a viewer intrigued is what this book digs deep into. Loved the effort author has put in to convey the points in a completely science-baked format rather than bullshitting with theories.You have to take this book slow in order to consume and understand the point author puts across.

The art of storytelling is needed where you need to keep your audience engaged. In case you are frequently giving presentations or speeches or you are in the field of written communication, book author, or even journalist, this book is a must read. It's hard to find engaging books on this subject, and that's what makes this book a bestseller.Through this book, you will learn what the different parts of a story are and how you can use them to improve your writing or oratory skills. Keep reading it while you practice your skills. Over the years, you will find that you have re-read it multiple times and every time you learned how to implement an idea into your work.

It's a good book justifies the title, to be processed

Absolutely fantastic (and science based) explanation of how extraordinary stories interact with the processes in our brain. The concepts of the flawed self and the dramatic question that forces the protagonist to make a choice. The two levels of a story - the visible events, and then the invisible things that happen in the minds of the characters. For a non-fiction book like this, this was a pure page turner and an absolutely delightful read.

good and informative

I bought this book thinking that I will learn the art of story telling and influence people around me but this book is absolutely opposite what I was assuming I don’t even understand the concept of this book why author has written this book or he should change the title of the book as it misleads folks, on back cover it’s written 10,0000 copies sold I don’t feel it’s true they are just making fool people mentioning this kind suff and making money just selling this book, don’t waste your money on this book there are hundreds out there which can be read to learn the art of storytelling

This book indeed breaks the layers involved in a good story from seemless world building to the dramatic question in a story it discusses all in depth with beautiful examples hence making it a must read for story enthusiasts.
