About the creator
Summary
Our emotions play a powerful role in everything we think, everything we say and everything we do. In this series of Boot Camp, Derren Brown is joined by top behavioural scientists and diverse experts to reveal how we can control these powerful and mysterious forces which often hijack our rational thinking and lead us seriously astray. By increasing our emotional intelligence we can improve our lives in every conceivable way.
Episode 1: Nothing to Fear but Fear Itself
What are emotions, what they are for and why do they cause us so much trouble? To start answering these questions, Derren focuses on one of our most basic emotions – fear.
Episode 2: The Green Eyed Monster
Derren explores how the roots of our emotional problems are to be found in our childhood and he confronts the twin green-eyed monsters - jealousy and envy.
Episode 3: Shame on You
Derren reveals how the often crippling effects of embarrassment, shame and guilt can be held in check.
Episode 4: What’s Love Got to Do With It?
Derren dives headlong into love, exploring its powerful role in our lives, along with its brasher companion, lust.
Episode 5: The Joys of Boredom
Derren takes a brief break from being witty and entertaining, to explore the turgid depths of boredom.
Episode 6: Such Sweet Sorrow
Derren wallows in sadness, to reveal how this seemingly negative emotion can be a powerfully positive force in our lives.
Episode 7: What Anger Can Do For Us
Derren looks at the things which trigger our anger and at how we can apply the safety-catch.
Episode 8: An Emotional Education
Derren’s exploration of human feelings reaches an emotional conclusion.

podcast revamped as audiobook
Superb performance and very well researched. i just hate the fact that it's a series of podcasts repackaged as a Audiobook.
it's more like a Kids tv program than a serious book about emotions, with silly background effects, more like Art Attack! So I personally found this hard to take seriously and only finished as background noise while driving. much preferred Chimp Paradox to this.

Variable Interest
All the previous subjects and help for the Brain and Body series were highly entertaining as well as informative - I was quite underwhelmed at this latest instalment as although it has some interesting topics there wasn’t an entertaining slant to fill out what are often very dry subjects

The charisma of the author
Fun, light and playful. If it’s a slick performance and general insight into populist phsyco therapy then dive right in.

A truly enjoyable experience
This book is very clear and concise with the research to back it up. It was quite eye-opening, and I will refer to it quite often. Thank you Derren Brown.
I thoroughly enjoyed the comedy in it as well
