Book excerpt: Readers subconsciously want certain things from a book...and best-selling writers make sure they deliver it. Thanks to evolution, the magic of story is wired into our brains-some of us can articulate why, many of us can't-but science certainly can. Story serves a unique function in the human psyche, a purpose so vital to our success as a species that humans are inescapably drawn to it. The multibillion-dollar publishing industry is a testament to this. But readers aren't drawn to any old story, there are certain elements that tip the scales between the slush pile and the yes pile, the bottom-dwellers and the best-sellers, the meh books and the holy-hardcover-I-can't-put-this-down! books.
