In simple and traditional English, Turner ranges from the tools of modern linguistics, to the recent work of neuroscientists such as Antoio Damasio and Gerald Edelman, to literary masterpieces by Homer, Dante, Shakespeare, and Proust, as he explains how story and projection--and their powerful combination in parable--are fundamental to everyday thought.
