Let’s hit the myths with a scientific approach!
Why does love pass and feelings cool down? Why are «thrills» losing their vibrant colors? Why can we be obsessed with the desire to get something and lose all interest as soon as it becomes ours? And what connects sex, creativity and political beliefs? The answer to these questions lies in a single molecule — dopamine. How this hormone makes us risk everything for the sake of the new and unknown, will tell the American researcher and psychiatrist Daniel Lieberman.
Equipped with the results of interesting scientific experiments and numerous «life» stories of real people, the audiobook will become an excellent guide to the mysterious inner world of a person, capable not only of destroying the existing myths about dopamine and hormones in general, but also helping to understand and explain our own emotions, feelings and reactions to external world.
Daniel Lieberman is a professor at George Washington University, a practicing psychiatrist and honorary member of the American Psychiatric Association. An active citizen raising mental health issues in the American media and collaborating with the US Department of Health and Human Services.
