"How are we moved by actors on screen? This excellent book reframes the analysis of screen acting to highlight the actor's creative agency in generating empathy. Drawing on professional practice and cognitive neuroscience, Leberg creates an impressively well researched conceptual scaffold that is inspiring, lucid, and far reaching.--Rick Kemp, author of Embodied Acting: What Neuroscience Tells Us About Performance In this important contribution to the study of screen acting, Leberg weaves together research from the cognitive sciences, different ""Method"" approaches to actor training, and his deeply-informed, practical experience as an actor to illuminate the process of creating moving performances on film. Screen Acting is an insightful and engaging book.--Amy Cook, author of Building Character"
