Eric believes that this book is the "craft bible," since it focuses entirely on the craft an actor must acquire in order to fulfill dramatic material. The book explores the seven major obligations related to material--time and place, relationship, emotional, character, thematic, historical, and subtextual--and from there goes on to define choices and explain how to use them to fulfill those obligations. The third element of the craft, the choice approaches, is the practical work the actor must do to create the choices. Out of the current thirty-one choice approaches, only twenty-two are explored in this book. The remaining nine are investigated in subsequent books.

On the stage or in film, actors often are doing things that seem to have no origin in reality -- the actors' responses are there only because they are supposed to be there. This leads to presentational acting, which is without dimension or spontaneity. Mr. Morris offers an approach to the search for truth in each actor and to the expression of that moment-to-moment reality that gives dimension, spontaneity and authenticity to a performance.
