This remarkable & monumental book at last provides a comprehensive answer to the age-old riddle of whether there are only a small number of 'basic stories' in the world. Using a wealth of examples from ancient myths & folk tales via the plays & novels of great literature to the popular movies & TV soap operas of today it shows that there are seven archetypal themes which recur throughout every kind of storytelling. But this is only the prelude to an investigation into how & why we are 'programmed' to imagine stories in these ways & how they relate to the inmost patterns of human psychology. Drawing on a vast array of examples from Proust to detective stories from the Marquis de Sade to E.T. Christopher Booker then leads us through the extraordinary changes in the nature of storytelling over the past 200 years & why so many stories have 'lost the plot' by losing touch with their underlying archetypal purpose. Booker analyses why evolution has given us the need to tell stories & illustrates how storytelling has provided a uniquely revealing mirror to mankind's psychological development over the past 5000 years. This seminal book opens up in an entirely new way our understanding of the real purpose storytelling plays in our lives & will be a talking point for years to come." ...

News of the discovery of the Ice Man & his age which was put at over five thousand years old fascinated the world. But what made the story particularly extraordinary was that Professor Sykes was also able to track down a living generic relative of the Ice Man a woman living in Britain today. How was he able to locate a living relative of a man who died thousands of years ago? In The Seven Daughters of Eve Bryan Sykes gives us a first hand account of his research into a remarkable gene which passes undiluted from generation to generation through the maternal line & shows how it is being used to track our genetic ancestors through time & space. After plotting thousands of DNA sequences from all over the world he found that they had clustered around a handful of distinct groups. In Europe there are only seven. The conclusion: almost everyone of native European descent wherever they live in the world can trace their ancestry back to one of seven women the Seven Daughters of Eve. He has named them Ursula Xenia Helena Velda Tara Katrine & Jasmine. In this remarkable scientific adventure story we learn exactly how our origins can be traced how & where our ancient genetic ancestors lived what their live were like & how we are each living proof of the almost miraculous strength of our DNA which has survived & prospered over so many thousands of years to reach us today.
