People have speculated whether the array of books displayed in the library of Castle Rock school (Coalville, Leicestershire) behind the UK PM had been sneaked into place by a librarian with a sense of humour (https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/aug/26/books-seen-behind-boris-johnson-tell-their-own-story). They included titles such as 'The Twits'; 'Betrayed'; 'The Subtle Knife'; 'Resistance' and 'Fahrenheit 451' (a book about a world where books are banned). This 'backcloth' was behind Mr Johnson, as he tried to claim that the recent examination fiasco was caused by a 'rogue algorithm'. I couldn't help wondering what might feature behind me in a similar scenario. In addition to 'The Story of Pea Brain' (above), 'The Brain That Changes Itself'; 'Brain Rules'; '365 Days of Brain Training'; 'The Brain: The Story of You' and 'Headhunters' might all feature.
