The Stories of Your Life The Eight MasterDescriptions That Explain Human Behaviour [Audiobook]

Ambridge uses examples from fiction, real life, and popular psychology research to demonstrate how we not only naturally gravitate towards the masterDescription narratives, but how we actually use those narratives to manipulate the world around us - like the addict who uses the Monster Description to paint their illness as something to overcome, or the boxer who relies on the Revenge narrative to motivate themselves to fight their way back after an embarrassing defeat. These masterDescriptions do more for us than to help us understand the world; they're vehicles through which humans have survived. The Stories of Your Life shares fascinating lessons about the nature of humanity, the power of psychology and - most importantly - the way we see ourselves.
