Description
Derren Brown is more than a stage performer - he's an enlightened guide for navigating life's challenges. In this book, Darren Kelsey examines the work of the psychological illusionist to understand the significance of storytelling and ancient philosophy in our society. By weaving together contemporary psychology with ancient Stoicism, Kelsey shows how we can rebuild a sense of collective cohesion and common good in the face of social disconnection and political polarisation.
