Summary
Our emotions play a powerful role in everything we think, everything we say and everything we do. In this series of Boot Camp, Derren Brown is joined by top behavioural scientists and diverse experts to reveal how we can control these powerful and mysterious forces which often hijack our rational thinking and lead us seriously astray. By increasing our emotional intelligence we can improve our lives in every conceivable way.
Episode 1: Nothing to Fear but Fear Itself
What are emotions, what they are for and why do they cause us so much trouble? To start answering these questions, Derren focuses on one of our most basic emotions – fear.
Episode 2: The Green Eyed Monster
Derren explores how the roots of our emotional problems are to be found in our childhood and he confronts the twin green-eyed monsters - jealousy and envy.
Episode 3: Shame on You
Derren reveals how the often crippling effects of embarrassment, shame and guilt can be held in check.
Episode 4: What’s Love Got to Do With It?
Derren dives headlong into love, exploring its powerful role in our lives, along with its brasher companion, lust.
Episode 5: The Joys of Boredom
Derren takes a brief break from being witty and entertaining, to explore the turgid depths of boredom.
Episode 6: Such Sweet Sorrow
Derren wallows in sadness, to reveal how this seemingly negative emotion can be a powerfully positive force in our lives.
Episode 7: What Anger Can Do For Us
Derren looks at the things which trigger our anger and at how we can apply the safety-catch.
Episode 8: An Emotional Education
Derren’s exploration of human feelings reaches an emotional conclusion.

Clear concise and informative
I have autism and ADHD and I have found that Derren Browns series of books on Life and Emotion to be very helpful. I have been able to understand more about myself and others around me. It’s been a challenge navigating the world around me but these audible originals have given me greater insight in how I might deal with those challenges and equally understand other people and how to interact with them. I will be exploring more his audio books and I would recommend his books to those who like myself find day to day life a challenge.

Enjoyable and informative!
I have listened to all of Derren’s boot camp podcasts and have loved every single one. He is a great storyteller and frankly I could listen to him for hours. He’s never boring and there’s always something to make you titter as you’re listening. Very relaxing and informative. I look forward to hearing more. Thanks Derren!

Light and engaging
Going through a lot in my life and big emotions. Haven’t got the capacity to deal with big academic pieces and this was a light hearted look at emotions. I liked the mix of stories and academics who could explain in simple terms. I like Derren’s humour too.

To deny our emotions is to deny the very thing that make us human
If we all can do one thing to help us understand what makes us human, it's to embark on this bootcamp journey that Derren has created. This is one of the best audible bootcamps I have experienced, and absolutely recommend for everyone. Enlightening, entertaining and enriching all at once. Thank you Derren!

dry humour at its best.
Derren is a funny guy! the exclamation Mark is because I didn't think he would be. my knowledge of him was limited to catching 5 minutes of one of his specials on TV, and I wasn't too impressed. However, my opinion has changed. He is obviously very clever, comes across as a nice bloke and very entertaining. Great stuff
