From the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Science of Storytelling comes a bold and ambitious investigation of status that will redefine human culture for our times There's something humans desire even more than gold. It's a fundamental drive that's common to all humanity, cutting across race, gender, age and culture. Our need for it is such that exactly how much of it we possess dramatically effects not only our happiness and well-being but also our physical health. It'sstatus, argues Will Storr. You can't understand human behaviour without understanding The Status Game. This game, which we are all playing, is not only the secret of our success, but also of our most evil behaviour. Everything is subordinate to status, and humans aren't unique in our complicity with it. By reflecting on the various ways humans negotiate this game - through status hierarchies, values, myths and sacred markers, Storr gives readers a master class in this most malevolent of social mysteries.

The Back Story 'Consciences' is the unique history of Goodness in the world. It is written for both adults and kids. It is also outrageous and ridiculous. That's what makes it unique. First, it's written by mice and inch-tall humans called Scraps. Half of it rhymes. Really? Yes, Really. Second, what is a Conscience, anyway? Does anyone know? My theory is that Consciences are real and live inside humans to help them figure out the difference between good and bad...right and wrong. Examples: 'Steal a bike'...right or wrong? 'Hurt someone for no reason'...good or bad? Your Conscience knows...but how did you get a Conscience? This book tells of two spirits at the beginning of time who decide to play a game for the future of the world. This Big Game will change evolution. That is 'major' and will take four quarters (legends). *Do the spirits running this game know what they are doing? Of course not. *Is the world in danger? Definitely. *Do humans without Consciences understand the difference between right and wrong at all? No...They are clueless. *Can something called 'Conscience' help humans?" The answer of when, why and how will shock you. So, here is the truth. I wrote 'Consciences' for everybody because I know everybody has a Conscience. I wrote about the way Consciences first began because it's history...I think. I'm told this book will be a classic so I hope you will read it before it becomes a movie. Suna

This novella based on Pythagorean ideas is an attempt to enable an individual to string a bridge from the intimate microcosm of their individuality to the macrocosm of the universe as we know it today. The string from which we all hang in today’s world is conscience which is composed of a set of psychological internal beliefs to which an individual ascribes to as that which governs their behavior. But when one’s action is in opposition to that which one professes to believe, the internal belief system becomes a tattered string hanging precariously to immorality. In the heat of battle we adopt and internalize the external national constitution that most Americans profess to fight for, uphold, and die for. But few really believe or understand it. This is a narrative beginning with a blind WWII Veteran in Arlington National Cemetery for our war dead. He is seeking to verify that the inscriptions inscribed on certain headstones of his former comrades are what they desired. Each inscription is purported to be a reminder to the living to keep the faith with themselves and their country. The necessity to continue the march forwards from a practical democracy to accomplish a true democracy is reinforced by a group of terrorists who capture and threaten to blow up the Statue of Liberty unless America ceases supporting corrupt governments through out the world.
