‘Will Storr is one of our best journalists of ideas … The Status
Game might be his best yet’ James Marriott, Books of the Year, The
Times ‘[The Status Game] challenged the way I think about the role
of status in my own life and in some ways it made me feel less
terrible about some of my unhealthy fixations. If you find yourself
needlessly worried about status, it might do the same for you … I
can’t stop thinking about it’ Sean Illing, Vox ‘Eloquent,
entertaining’ New Statesman ‘Moving … Scholarly … Storr showcases a
rare skill – the ability to use technical academic
scholarship in solving a real-world problem’ Helen Dale, CapX ‘I
haven’t finished reading The Status Game because I’ve only read it
once. There's so much in this dazzling book I will be revisiting
over and over again’
Daniel Finkelstein, author of Everything in Moderation ‘The Status
Game could not be more timely and provides a missing piece for
understanding where we are, and how to get out of this mess … I
can’t recommend it highly enough’
Greg Lukianoff, co-author with Jonathan Haidt of The Coddling of
the American Mind ‘Thought provoking and enlightening – you’ll be
discussing The Status Game everywhere you go’ Sara Pascoe ‘Bursting
with insights into the hierarchy-crazed hellscape of a world shaped
by social media, this book confirms Will Storr’s own status as a
master storyteller’
Helen Lewis, author of Difficult Women ‘A radical new theory of
human nature … It should – quite appropriately – establish Will
Storr as the finest science writer being published today’
David Robson, author of The Intelligence Trap
