Down a Peg: A Book About Art & Culture That Isn’t Stuffy, Highbrow, Reverential, Boring or Elitist

by Susan Adam

The arts make us human. They pull us together and tear us apart. They help us feel safe - and loved. And they bring that va-va-voom into our days (and nights). From the bone-shaking stomp-stomp-clap of a live concert to the world’s ubiquitous use of emojis and the chill-inducing impact of a swastika, Susan Adam draws you into the biology and psychology of the arts. She makes it personal and fun - a smorgasbord of experiences so familiar that you will see the arts at play in your own life.
