In the spirit ofAlain de Botton's How Proust Can Change Your Life , Marche reveals how Shakespeare's influence is everywhere--from politics topsychotherapy, broadway to botany, emo teenagers to outrageous baby names, even zoology (didyou know it's the Bard who is responsible for the starlings terrorizing NewYork City's Central Park?).
