Sri-Lankan writer Romesh Gunesekera鈥檚 widely acclaimed first novel, Reef, was short-listed as a finalist for the Booker Prize, as well as for the Guardian Fiction Prize. His fourth, The Match, was hailed as one of the first novels in which cricket was celebrated, and his most recent, Noontide Toll, explores the world view of taxi drivers, those masters of social intelligence.

Elizabeth Stokoe is Professor of Social Interaction in the department of social sciences at Loughborough University. 聽Her focus is conversation analysis:聽 collecting, forensically transcribing and analysing hundreds of recordings of naturally occurring social interactions (e.g., speed dates, police-suspect interviews, doctor-patient encounters, telephone sales calls). She uses the data to find out how different designs of聽turns of talk聽lead to different conversational outcomes.

Romesh Gunesekera says that every person in the world should have a Pinocchio nose. This will be a bit of global genetic engineering that would take us to the next evolutionary stage in social intelligence. You can keep your special shape of nose, but it will behave like Pinocchio鈥檚: it will get longer and bigger whenever you lie, or tell an untruth. As a result, our behaviour will change. We will all learn new and better ways of relating and communicating with each other.
