A leading brain scientist's look at the neurobiology of pleasure-and how pleasures can become addictions.
Whether eating, taking drugs, engaging in sex, or doing good deeds, the pursuit of pleasure is a central drive of the human animal. In The Compass of Pleasure Johns Hopkins neuroscientist David J. Linden explains how pleasure affects us at the most fundamental level: in our brain.
As he did in his award-winning book, The Accidental Mind, Linden combines cutting-edge science with entertaining anecdotes to illuminate the source of the behaviors that can lead us to ecstasy but that can easily become compulsive. Why are drugs like nicotine and heroin addictive while LSD is not? Why has the search for safe appetite suppressants been such a disappointment? The Compass of Pleasure concludes with a provocative consideration of pleasure in the future, when it may be possible to activate our pleasure circuits at will and in entirely novel patterns.

評分有没有想过,吃货们对美食的眷恋与宅男对电子游戏的着迷并没有本质上的区别,藏书爱好者,狂刷微博的年轻人,与那些药物成瘾患者其实也都差不多。因为,这一切都与我们脑中的“愉悦回路”有关。 有这样一个实验早已广为人知:大鼠为了获得电极刺激所带来的兴奋感,可以废寝忘食...
評分这本书的原名非常长,叫做:the compass of pleasure: how our brain make fatty foods, orgasm, exercise, marijuana, generosity, vodka, learning, and gambling feel so good. 我更喜欢原意:快乐的指南针。题目中的几个关键词概括了全书的内涵,即大脑、食物、赌博以及某...
