Recenzii
Reese provides a superb synthesis of our scientific understanding of stories, which she weaves together with tales from her own life like a true storyteller. An engaging and stimulating read
Elaine Reese's masterful book, Stories Change Us, provides a rich overview of the ways that stories and reading can alter the ways we think and connect with others. Trained as a developmental psychologist, Reese walks us through the science of narrative
As a psychological scientist who loves stories, Elaine Reese is the perfect person to tell the story of the science of stories. In this engaging and deeply researched book, she describes the development of our relationship with stories across the human life course, beginning even in the womb as we hear our mother's narrating voice. Stories change us, and they teach us how to be human. With great authority and compassion, Professor Reese conveys abiding insights about human development, parenting, gender, and family relationships, and she provides practical advice regarding the promise and the perils of storytelling in today's world.
