In this book, first published in 2006, seven internationally renowned writers address the theme of Power from the perspective of their own disciplines.

Screenwriter Maureen Thomas explains the mechanisms of narrative power in the media of film and videogames, Elisabeth Bronfen the emotional power carried by representations of life and death, and Derek Scott the power of patriotic music and the mysterious Mozart effect.
